"Casa Lauria", The House of Bay Laurel, is a fine example of Californian Mid-Century architecture. Inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright student & architect Rowan Maiden, the designer of the famed Nepenthe, the house has 4 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, a versatile multi-use studio space, and a spectacular much-loved great room with open kitchen which is perfect for entertaining or meditation, with its unsurpassed views of the Big Sur River Valley and surrounding mountains. Deeply private at the end of its own driveway from legendary Apple Pie Ridge Road, yet conveniently located minutes from Big Sur's finest restaurants, resorts, beaches and hiking, this tranquil retreat has been nurtured, upgraded, and loved by the same owner for the past 25 years. Nestled into nature and graced by landscaped terraces, decks and patios on various levels, the home opens to multiple outdoor living spaces which feature a hot tub, a claw-foot bathtub, a zen rock garden, along with rosemary, lavender, and citrus trees abounding. Nearby, a path leads up to an elevated plateau that looks out over the forest and is perfect for a vegetable garden, or more. A short walk away is one of Big Sur's huge ancient redwood groves with its pristine stream serving as the property's coveted, deeded, year round water source.
