Description

This guide will introduce you to the vision, life, and culture that is The Sea Ranch.

About the early planning of these ten spectacular miles of California coast, our founding landscape architect, Lawrence Halprin, declared that the "most difficult task was finding a way for people to inhabit the magnificent and natural system in numbers without destroying the very reason for people to come here."

With this challenge in mind, we created strong governing documents to insure the preservation of this fragile environment. These documents continue to guide us some 50 years later. When you buy your house or lot, you also buy into a unique community built to live in balance with the surrounding natural world.

To help you understand our core philosophy and to give you a sense of what it is like to be part of this remarkable community, here is Living at The Sea Ranch, written in friendship by current owners.
