About This Home

As of August 2023

Fensalden Estate, or 'The Land of Sea and Mist' in Norse, sits atop 7.5 +/- pastoral acres that are framed by ancient Cypress and overlooking the rugged Mendocino coast. Built in 1860 as a Wells Fargo Stagecoach stop and later operated as creamery, a ranch, a private residence, and a farm retreat. It began it's most recent incarnation as a lodging property in the 1970s. There are 8 guest quarters spread across the main house and additional three separate cottages. The commanding main residence has been remodeled in keeping with its historic pedigree and consists of 5 spacious bedrooms in the main lodge, each with their own private bath; an elegant front parlor with fireplace; the original redwood-clad Tavern Room (now the Great Room); the more relaxed, glass-enclosed sunporch; two kitchens; and an attached caretaker's unit with a separate entrance. The three additional lodging units that merge the historic with the contemporary: The Water Tower House, wrapped in rustic character with exposed beams and joinery is 2 beds/2 baths with a small kitchen area. The more modern 'Yellow House' has 2 beds/1 bath, kitchen, dining area, and living room. The 3rd unit is the bungalow which is a studio with extra sleeping loft, full bath and a kitchen. Not currently operating as a B&B.
