Tucked into the rolling coastal hills of Big Sur, this 1.184-acre parcel offers a rare opportunity to own land in one of California's most iconic and tightly held coastal regions.

Whether you're land banking for the future or investing in a scarce coastal asset, this is a unique opportunity. Address is approximate. Property is being sold by APN.
