BIG SUR'S EPIC COOPER POINT Located directly between the spectacular beaches of Pfeiffer and Andrew Molera, this private 109 acre property literally connects the two parklands as the sole private property contiguous to both. White sandy beach, redwood forest, creeks, 360 degree views...this is the property that legendary Big Sur architect Mickey Muennig chose to build his final residential masterpiece. The 3 bedroom / 3 bath home is warmed by heated concrete floors from which massive walls of glass rise up providing views 100 miles north OR south. An earth roof provides insulation and is part of the landscape. A private guest house has similar features, and the property's 3 separate parcels may provide an additional homesite for development, such as the forested flat just above the un-named white sand beach which the property touches.
