Situated on an expansive 32,500 sqft lot within the exclusive Seadrift gates, this property offers a rare 'front-row' relationship to the Pacific with nearly double the typical land area of neighboring parcels.
The Balinese and Tahitian-inspired design features individual Joglo-style bedrooms and disappearing glass walls, creating a soulful, indoor-outdoor luxury experience that is entirely unique to the Northern California coast.
At a list price of $16 million for 1,793 square feet, the property commands a premium of over $8,900 per square foot, which may be difficult to justify for buyers focused on interior living volume.
The individual Bali Joglo bedroom configuration requires residents to step outside to move between living areas and sleeping quarters, which may be inconvenient during inclement weather or for families with young children.
172 Seadrift Road is not just an escape. It is your own private, tropical oceanfront hidden inside the famed gates of Seadrift. Feel transported without ever having to leave the Bay Area. No planes needed just memories that you will have for your lifetime. It also means you get to leave Monday morning, so every weekend can feel like a three-day weekend. When you arrive, the gates close behind you, the palms move in the breeze, the ocean is in front of you, and suddenly Northern California feels like Hawaii or Bali. The mood here ... this is now your new mood the entire time you are here. The home is Tahitian, Balinese, and Stinson all wrapped in one, yet entirely its own. It is relaxed, soulful, and dramatic yet blended with nature, not fighting it. Sliding glass doors disappear, the interiors open to the gardens, the pool and the beach beyond. This is indoor-outdoor living without effort. It is sandy feet, long lunches, swimming under the stars, morning coffee with the Pacific, and the kind of privacy that is almost impossible to recreate. Five bedrooms and three baths here and what is so freaking cool... all the bedrooms are individual Bali Joglos with their own doors out to the gardens. The Living Room and Primary Suite look directly toward the ocean, giving the home that rare front-row relationship to the water. You do not just see the beach; you live with it. The lot is almost double in scale, and the palm garden is unlike anything else in Seadrift. It is lush, cinematic, and deeply tranquil. It is an oasis of health and wellness. The beach here is special. The curve, the long four-mile walk, the connection to the water on a private beach. This is the unique place where surfboards, dinner parties, wet dogs, great architecture, and barefoot luxury all exist together. 172 Seadrift has the kind of tropical confidence that makes you forget where you are, while reminding you exactly why you are here. It's one of California's most treasured communities
