About this home

1021 Hillcrest is an architectural gem, perfectly designed for the 1+ acre site in sunny and sought after Pine Knolls, the original premier neighborhood in the seaside village of Cambria. This Big Sur-esque home features Douglas Fir post/beam structure and a passive solar design that incorporates exposed aggregate walls that serve as thermal mass. While the spaces are multi-leveled, only a few stairs separate each. Ceilings are vaulted and beamed, with skylights and windows for abundant light while feeling the outdoors mingle with your inside living. Decks provide plenty of outside living space where you can take in the awesome setting, which is not only adjacent to the approx 1,600 acre Covell Ranch, but also provides ocean views and powerful sunsets to the west! James Maul, noted Central Coast architect, designed so many features into this property, with paths and patios connecting the main home to the guest house, and the detached garage just below. The buildings are set back from the street, up the beautifully multicolored paver driveway, with extra parking areas, including RV area with hookups. The main house is loft-style one bedroom with great openness throughout, and the guest house has 2 bedrooms and a bath, also designed Maul-style with plenty of artful beam work. The two parcels total over one acre of privacy and unlimited options for your legacy property. A few minutes from the village, and a short drive to Big Sur, Paso Robles wine country, many beaches to meet your needs, and our big city of San Luis Obispo!! Call your realtor today for a private showing.
