About 38875 Palo Colorado Road
TWIN PEAKS RESERVE: This rare 96 acre Big Sur wild land is situated at one of the highest points on the Big Sur coast on the northern Santa Lucia Mountain Range: With 180 degree ocean views this remote and very private property has direct access to the Ventana Wilderness, the Los Padres National Forest and the Palo Corona Biological Preserve. High above the fog and the redwood canyons flowing down to the wide blue Pacific there are views southwest across the forested mountain wilderness to Pico Blanco and the Big Sur River watershed. There is easy access from a County Road off Hwy 1 onto a private gated well maintained unpaved road. It's a little over an hour from Carmel and the Monterey airport to your fully equipped off grid solar guest cottage. ( Shorter with a personal Joby Avaition eVTOL air taxi coming soon) Excellent spring water with 10,000 gallons storage that gravity feeds to the guest cottage and main house site. The original house site is ready for redevelopment as it was destroyed in the Soberanes fire of 2016 There is an additional 102 acre contiguous parcel of land available for sale
