A truly rare opportunity. First settled 156 years ago by Captain Charlie Moss, this extraordinary 86.9-acre family compound lies along the banks of Elkhorn Slough, within sight of the harbor, jetty, and Monterey Bay, a protected marine sanctuary. Known as one of the top birdwatching destinations in the country, recognized by Audubon as Top 10 nationwide. In the early 1870s, Moss sold the property to the current family, and together they helped established Moss Landing, building a 200 foot long wharf, that launched the local fishing industry and supported regional agriculture shipping north to San Francisco and south to Los Angeles. After more than a century and a half, the property is ready for its next steward. A local treasure. Structures include: #1 main house approx. 3,500 sq. ft. (4 bed/3 bath) #2 cottage approx. 600 sq. ft. 1 bed/1 bath #3 house approx. 2,300 sq ft 2 bed/2 bath, 2-car garage #4 house approx. 1,700 sq ft 2 bed/2 bath,1-car garage #5 cabin/studio w/ kitchen & bath, needs work 4,400 sq. ft. barn 55 x 80, med size barn, small barn, machine shop, milk shack, chicken coop.
