The possibilities are endless. *A Life Defined by Nature, Not Schedules * Here on the Lost Coast, the daily rhythm revolves around tide pools instead of spreadsheets and driftwood fires instead of deadline stress.

Bald eagles circle above the King Range peaks, hunting and nesting in pristine wilderness. You'll have access to 60,000+ acres of the King Range National Conservation Area, with King Peak towering at 4,091 feet. Enjoy a temperate four-season climate with warm summers, rainy winters, and occasional snow at higher elevations. * More Than One Home: The Smart Money Move * Thanks to RES2 zoning, this property is a developer's dream. You can legally build: 1) A main residence plus two accessory dwelling units (ADUs) on the same lot 2) A personal coastal cottage or modern container home for yourself 3) Two rental units to generate year-round income Since the Lost Coast attracts tourists, hikers, and surfers every season, short-term rentals here are lucrative. Build your dream home, rent out the extra units, and let the property pay for itself. * Where Mountains Meet Ocean * A short walk away, you'll find a nine-hole golf course and a private landing strip at nearby Shelter Cove—making this a genuine "fly-in" retreat destination. The unique micro climate brings together salt-air coastal living mixed with alpine forests of rare Sugar Pines and resilient Douglas-firs. * Secure Your Lost Coast Legacy Today * At $35,000, this is genuinely rare—a chance to own a piece of California's last untamed frontier before it becomes someone else's legacy. Properties like this don't stay on the market long. The question isn't whether you can afford it.
