Purchased as fixer'' in the Mendocino Village in 2001, what followed was a multi-year labor of love to restore the historic Bettencourt House & Water Tower Barn. One of finest locations of the village of Mendocino, this compound offers unobstructed, 180-degree views of the bay and the Pacific Ocean. The main house is set high on the south-facing parcel and offers views from virtually every room. Upon entering the home, you step into the spacious living room featuring large picture windows that offer stunning views. This space wraps around to a dining area and den. The kitchen features cherry cabinetry, teak and reclaimed marble countertops, original fir flooring, and walk-in pantry. Next to the kitchen, is a full bath and separate WC. A bedroom with a wash basin and WC, occupies the entire 2nd level. The water tower barn, was originally constructed in 1905, then restored into an exquisite living space in 2006. Within the barn you'll find 2 sitting areas (one with a murphy bed); a full bath w/ separate WC ; and a laundry room and office. Quite possibly the most unique feature is the hidden bedroom'' located behind a seamlessly integrated door panel. Adjacent to that panel, you'll also find a walk-in closet, storage area and attic access.
