IMPECCABLY CLEAN — WHITE WATER VIEWS
in SEA RANCH’S MOST DESIRABLE UNIT 28.

A heaven for a vacationer to whom the views and sounds, and even smells of the ocean, being in nature, walking the ocean bluff trail, and being away from the crowds and sounds of suburbia, are more important than the luxury of 5-star hotel accommodations or a large, modern home further away from the ocean.

Floor plan of Casa Pacis. The detached garage/annex building is not shown. The 200 sq.ft. loft is unlocked but is not “officially” part of the rented space. The detached garage is accessible to renters for storage; but the rest of that annex building is excluded from the rented space and remains locked and vacant during rental periods.

==========================

The owner of Casa Pacis is an expert in Home Energy Analysis for Carbon Footprint Reduction and in Solar System Design and Performance Simulation.

Casa Pacis has a solar PV system that has, since pioneering installation almost exactly 20 years ago, generated 100,200 kWh of electricity (as of 11/2023) and, thus, offset ~60,000 lb of CO2 emissions (assuming 0.6 lb/kWh). The energy produced by this system would have “fueled” a state-of-the-art EV for about 350,000 miles or saved 15,000 gal of gasoline.

Casa Pacis is located at the cul-de-sac of Osprey Reach (red outlined rectangle); unobstructed views into Walk-On Beach.

The Casa Pacis home sits at the cul-de-sac of Osprey Reach. The two lots in front are undeveloped and permit unobstructed ocean bluff views from every room in this uniquely picturesque and private meadow location. There is a 100-yard trail connecting the cul-de-sac with the famous Sea Ranch ocean bluff trail. South of Casa Pacis one finds the only sand dunes of The Sea Ranch. Enjoy Photos from the Bluff Trail.
