About 7401 Shepard Mesa Road
Come for the view. Stay forever. On the front row of Shepard Mesa's southern rim, this 5BD/4BA mid-century farmhouse is defined by sweeping ocean-to-mountain views - where the landscape is part of daily life, & strong short-term rental potential adds a compelling layer of versatility. A 1940s adobe, expanded in the 1960's by architect Richard Bliss Nelson, the home unfolds across 3 levels, oriented to the horizon. The main level unites kitchen, dining & living spaces, w picture windows & sunlit patios framing views, while the primary suite & 2 guest bds are positioned for privacy offering the ease of single-level living. A 2nd primary spans the upper level, while a media room below opens to orchards, al fresco dining, fire pit & spa. Slow down & settle into the soul of California.
