If you ever had a dream of living on the California coast, it probably looked something like this. Located just 60 miles south of Carmel, 29141 Plasket Ridge Road overlooks Big Sur's spectacular scenery.

The home blends California coastal design with log cabin vibes, and it features a bright and airy great room with expansive, double-height glazing. The room's 20-foot-tall ceiling is made of redwood sourced and milled right on the property.

Designed for indoor/outdoor living, the great room opens to a spacious deck with breathtaking views the Pacific Ocean and the rich, forested mountains of Los Padres National Park.

This lovely, light-filled home is rich with local history. The home is located on the site of a century-old California gold mine, which is still accessible on the property, and was still in use through the 1960s. In fact, the original miners' quarters now serve as the home's kitchen.
