Built in 1855, the historic Spencer Hills House is one of Mendocino Village's most distinguished Victorian residences, gracefully elevated on the high side of the village and overlooking Friendship Park. Set on an uniquely large 1.2-acre parcel, the property enjoys iconic, layered views that include water towers, the beloved Time & the Maiden atop the historic Masonic Hall, the mouth of Big River and the Pacific Ocean beyond. Distinctive custom milled trim unique to this home reflects the craftsmanship and architectural detail of its era. Inside, ceiling heights are notably generous for a Victorian of this vintage, and expansive windows bring abundant natural light into the living spaces. Wide-plank wood floors and preserved period details provide warmth and continuity throughout the home. Considerable upgrades and repairs have been thoughtfully completed, elevating the residence into the modern luxury category while maintaining sincere reverence for its historic character. Improvements were approached with with uncompromising attention to quality and detail, enhancing comfort, performance, and longevity while remaining visually and architecturally harmonious with the home's historic fabric. Outdoor spaces have been equally well considered. An oversized deck offers a wonderful setting for outdoor dining and entertaining, framed by village rooftops, historic landmarks, coastal cypresses, and ocean horizons. The grounds also include a thoughtfully created bocce court with surrounding flagstone, adding a relaxed, social element that complements the property's generous scale and setting. A two-car garage provides everyday convenience, with overflow cedar lined closed space, wine storage, and wired for an EV. A separate, non-historic barn structure on the northwest corner of the property comes with approved plans and permit to bring it into compliance offering future flexibility in accordance with Mendocino Historic Review Board standards. From the front door, enjoy easy access down into Mendocino Village, with its shops, galleries, restaurants, and coastal trails just below. Historic homes of this provenance, setting, acreage, and thoughtful stewardship are rarely available. This is a singular opportunity to own a landmark Mendocino residence where heritage and refined modern living coexist with care and intention.
