Sequestered along the protected edges of Point Reyes National Seashore and the Greater Farallones Marine Sanctuary lies the reclusive, eclectic town of Bolinas, where this offering represents one of the larger undeveloped parcels on the Bolinas Gridded Mesa. Comprising two contiguous lots APNs 191-022-37 (approximately 22,000 sq ft) and 191-022-04 (approximately 4,000 sq ft)the properties are to be sold together, totaling roughly 0.60 acre. The property offers a rare coastal experience: begin the days with sunrises over Bolinas Beach and end with sunsets at Agate Beach, with access in between to surfing, beachcombing, tidepooling, hiking, and cycling along this rugged, ever-changing coastline. Due to the lack of a water connection and the permanent water moratorium established by the Bolinas Community Public Utility District (BCPUD) in 1971, the parcels are being sold as unbuildable. Current possible uses are limited to non-structural, daytime, or agricultural activities (buyers to verify specific uses and permitting requirements with Marin County). These restrictions have helped preserve the treasured natural character of this rural coastal community, protecting the land, its native habitat, and the quiet quality that defines Bolinas. For those with a longer view, the opportunity lies as much in stewardship as in ownership caring for the land, exploring agricultural uses, or holding a rare piece of the Mesa. In a moment of synchronicity, the adjacent developed parcel on Kale Road, featuring a refreshed, iconic A-frame, has just come to market. Opportunities to acquire neighboring properties simultaneously are uncommon in Bolinas. In combination, they offer a compelling relationship between open land and existing infrastructure, suggesting expanded potential while maintaining privacy and a sense of open space (buyers to investigate all possibilities). The property lies within the Coastal Zone. Buyers are advised to verify all permitted uses with Marin County Community Development and BCPUD.
