Villa Montara is so much more than a home - it is a sanctuary of simplicity and peace. Perched 100 feet above the Pacific Ocean with romantic coastal views set to a soundtrack of crashing waves, this understated retreat was designed to harmonize with its peaceful, natural setting.

Hand stuccoed walls embrace the property, shielding it from the elements and invite one to become engaged in a private conversation with nature. A muse itself, the home has been the site of artistic and technological innovation for sculptors, artisans, and executives, and has provided a stunning backdrop for models, actors, and even the occasional music video.

Dating back to 1946 and transitioned to its current sculptural state beginning in the late 1970s, this property presents an opportunity to take the helm as both steward of a precious piece of California coast and curator of artistic heritage. Villa Montara stands ready for the next phase in its natural evolution, inviting buyers to guide the way.
