About This Home
Whaleship Harbor View

Classic in its coastal setting and beautifully polished in its design and decor, this three-level home in Bodega Bay enjoys a commanding view of Bodega Harbor. This inviting house is a place to relax, walk to wild ocean beaches nearby, and take in the rugged beauty of coastal Sonoma County.

Find ample space to park in the driveway and enter by way of the wraparound deck - a gorgeous spot to admire the bay view, soak up the sunshine in the afternoons, and grill and dine al fresco when the mood strikes. Inside, you'll find a living space that's full of natural light and California coastal decor. There's a living room with a wood-burning stove and a 55' TV capable of Roku streaming, a full kitchen with stainless steel appliances and a breakfast bar for two, and a glass-top dining table by the window. The family room serves as another place to unwind, sporting its own 55' TV with Roku capabilities, as well as a lovely glimpse of the outdoor scenery.

The bedrooms are wonderfully separated among the three floors, offering both comfort and privacy. The entire third floor is one loft-style bedroom with a sitting area where you can read with a view of the water. There are two bedrooms on the main floor as well. The lower level acts as its own living space of sorts, offering a bedroom with a full bathroom, a cozy den, and a gas fireplace. Additionally, there is a table with chairs that can be used as a workspace, a dining set, or a game table.
