Spacious 4 Bedroom Luxury Estate in Enchanting Mendocino Coast with Wi-Fi

Welcome to your storybook escape on California’s rugged North Coast. Nestled in the heart of picturesque Mendocino, this one-of-a-kind home is a lovingly restored English-style cottage brimming with history, artistry, and tranquil charm.

Originally commissioned by world-renowned seascape artist E. John Robinson and his wife June, the home was inspired by their travels through the English countryside in the late 1970s and early '80s. Designed to echo the timeless elegance of a traditional half-timbered cottage, this residence is both a personal legacy and a living piece of art.

E. John Robinson (1932–2008) was celebrated for his breathtaking seascapes—over 4,000 in his lifetime—and was featured on four Reader’s Digest covers. His art instruction books and best-selling videos brought his passion to students around the world. This home was his retreat, a space of reflection, creativity, and natural beauty.

Today, the home has been thoughtfully re-imagined by its current owner—also an artist—who was inspired by the soul of the space and the legacy left behind. While preserving the original heart of the home, they introduced a warm, country-modern style. Yellow pine resewn flooring, imported from a Georgia mill, sets the tone. The kitchen is a masterpiece in itself, featuring custom walnut cabinetry and hand-crafted details throughout.

Surrounded by lush pygmy and redwood forest, the property is a peaceful sanctuary where nature, comfort, and artistry converge. Whether you’re sipping coffee in the garden, curled up by the fireplace with a book, or enjoying the textures and fine craftsmanship throughout the home, every detail is designed to help you relax, recharge, and feel truly at home.

(There are 3 homes on this property. Each has their own private access. Not to each other homes. Each home is rented out separately.)
