Property Description

FOR COMP PURPOSES Set on a private, gated acre in Los Osos Acre Estates, this Modern Craftsman property pairs spacious single-level living with exceptional gardens and a separate guest apartment. A peaceful setting on the outskirts of Los Osos places you within easy reach of the beaches, trails, dining, and recreation that define life on the Central Coast. Inside the four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath main residence, exposed beams, soaring ceilings, and expansive windows create an inviting connection to the surrounding landscape.

Mahogany doors, custom built-ins, window seats, and a combination of hardwood and concrete flooring bring warmth and character throughout. The open layout accommodates both everyday living and entertaining, with a generous dining area featuring a custom buffet. The kitchen offers granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a gas range, breakfast bar, garden window, and walk-in pantry.

An exercise room adjoining the primary suite and a dedicated laundry room with a sink and storage add flexibility and convenience. Designed by award-winning landscape architect Jeffrey Gordon Smith, the grounds offer a series of distinctive outdoor spaces to explore and enjoy. A sculptural “stone river” and oversized stepping stones link the wraparound deck to a Japanese tea house, while fountains, mature California oaks, fruit trees, and flowering and succulent gardens enrich the setting.

Walking paths and thoughtfully placed landscape lighting complement an expansive open area for recreation or gathering. The updated guest apartment provides a private entrance, a spacious living area, and a remodeled kitchen and bathroom with a walk-in shower—offering comfortable accommodations for visitors or extended stays, with potential for rental income. A finished two-car garage with custom cabinetry, a large storage shed, full perimeter fencing, and space for boat or RV parking complete the property.

Nearby destinations include Montaña de Oro State Park, Morro Bay, golf courses, local shops and restaurants, and the region’s celebrated wineries, with San Luis Obispo also within easy reach. See the seller’s list of upgrades for additional details.
