There is, on occasion, some confusion about our real estate category of "Oceanview". It would make sense, some would think, that if the ocean can be seen from a particular piece of property... that's "oceanview", right? Well, yes, one would think so... but no. As confusing as it might seem, there's another category: "Oceanfront". If a property is perched right on the ocean edge and if it borders the Pacific Ocean high-tide line, it's "oceanfront"! You're still with me?

Some people insist on being on the ocean bluff (oceanfront, of course) where, when they look to sea, there's nothing between them and the horizon and Japan but air and water... or the occasional ship, seagull, seal or whale to spoil the view. Others tell us they don't care how far back they are from the bluff or beach as long as they can see, hear and smell the ocean.

Recapping, "Oceanview" is a category meant to describe any property NOT perched on the ocean edge, but one that still has an oceanVIEW. We've cleared that up, now, have we? Good.

There are different degrees of oceanview, of course. Some ocean view properties are a matter of a few feet away from the ocean's edge; others are a mile or more. When it comes to describing real property, you will see, in real estate ads, descriptions such as:

In a constantly fluctuating real estate market, the number of oceanview properties available for sale has ranged from about 25 to 75, a result of supply and demand. Currently?.... about 65 are available in the Mendocino Coastal areas. Call us for complete details on any of them. What follows is just a sampling.

Watch the whales from either of these two oceanview homes. Full of character, this is a unique ocean-view property sited on a tranquil cul-de-sac overlooking the Pacific and with lots of privacy.

What makes this special is that there are two cottages on the property, both with ocean views, making for a family compound.

The main home (of 960 square feet), following major remodeling, is very comfortable with 2 bedrooms and a bath. Ocean views are from the living area, dining area and the deck. There are interesting features and a well-appointed kitchen.

The second cottage (of 640 square feet) consists of one bedroom and bath and a kitchen. A two-car garage is positioned between the cottages.

Opportunities as a primary or second home with long term or vacation rental possibilities. History available.

This is a great location with superb views. And if you're a walker or runner, it's a dream, but if you don't walk or run, it's still a dream.

This is a comfortable, one-story home with three bedrooms and two baths and close to 1,600 square feet.

Did we mention location? It's got a great, unimpeded view over the famous Glass Beach to the ocean. It's close to downtown Fort Bragg (just on the northern edge). It's close to Pudding Creek, the estuary and the old trestle that once carried the logging industry trains. The Pudding Creek area is an Audubon treasure with egrets, osprey, heron, ducks of all sort, finches and a sky-full of birds, either making the area their permanent home or stopping off on their migratory trips.

The home is spacious, well laid out, separate dining area, living areas separated from sleeping areas. There's a fabulous backyard with a large deck separating areas for multiple uses with a patio and shed. The exterior siding is vinyl-clad for easy maintenance.

You'd do well to call this "home".

ID#LEB1234X

On the northern edge of Mendocino Village is this ocean view home with great potential. The southern, private wing has been remodeled into charming and comfortable, open-space living quarters, but the main part of the house, with a separate entrance, and with three bedrooms and three baths, is a “fixer” in need of remodeling. Someone “with vision” will turn this property into a fine Mendocino home.

The private wing has a large living room, dining area, in open-space to include a small kitchen. There is no cooking stove – the owners relied on a hot-plate and microwave. Just off the living room is a small, cozy sun room. The bedroom is small, but warm and comfortable, and the bathroom has a soaking tub with a shower over.

The main part of the house (the fixer) – 3 bedrooms and two baths downstairs – has a large, open-space living room, kitchen and dining area (+ a bath) on the second floor. There are good ocean views to the northwest from the living room.

Two additional rooms downstairs give the potential to develop three separate suites, each with a sitting-room, bedroom and bath.

In a fenced area in the southeast corner of the property is a foundation, constructed some years ago by a previous owner. There is no record of its intended use, but it could possibly serve as a large garage + a large workshop.
