10901 Gurley Ln, Mendocino, CA 95460

This classic Mendocino cottage delivers authentic coastal character, generous outdoor acreage and practical outbuildings within an easy walk of Mendocino Village. Set on approximately .93 acres, the 1933 home (approx. 1,482 sq ft) feels larger than its footprint thanks to high ceilings, hardwood floors and multiple sunny decks that expand living into the garden. The living spaces flow simply and comfortably: two bedrooms, a full marble-tiled bath, a separate half-bath and a bright solarium that connects indoor and outdoor life.

Outside, the property reads as both a private retreat and a working garden. Long-term plantings, mature beds and a greenhouse/workshop shed provide productive outdoor space; a covered carport offers protected parking. A detached 10' x 12' studio—built for art, music, meditation or a focused home office—gives you creative flexibility without disrupting the main house. Unique touches include an outdoor clawfoot tub and shower for that unmistakable coastal feel.

Location is a major draw: stroll to Mendocino’s shops, galleries and acclaimed restaurants, and to the Headlands State Park trails that run along the bluff. Big River and the beach are close enough for daily walks and waterside sunsets. The property is move-in ready yet offers upside for buyers who want to enhance systems, expand outdoor living, or apply for permitted accessory dwelling uses (verify with county and coastal regulations).

Whether you’re searching for a primary home with immediate village access or a second-home retreat that guests will book in the summer, this property strikes a rare balance of character, usable land and coastal convenience. Showings are easy—call listing agent Peter White for appointments and details.
