Overview

Formerly owned by Lawrence Ferlinghetti, poet, artist, City Lights founder and one of Americas defining literary voices, this rare 2.61-acre Big Sur property is offered by his son, Lorenzo Ferlinghetti. Set within an exclusive gated Bixby Canyon enclave, it offers the chance to create a private retreat in one of Californias most storied coastal landscapes. The property includes a cleared building site, new well with source-capacity review for future residential use, existing cabin, meditation hut and historic trout ponds. The owner has advanced due diligence toward residential use, including well work, geotechnical/percolation investigation, septic planning and residence concepts. Seller states the property was historically two approximately 1.3-acre lots later merged, creating potential to explore subdivision back into two lots, subject to County approval and buyer investigation. If approved, this may allow two homes or future sale of one lot to help fund construction. Ferlinghettis legacy is tied to Big Sur and the Beat Generation. He previously owned a nearby property down the canyon where Jack Kerouac stayed during the period that inspired Big Sur. A rare feature is access to a private residents-only pathway following Bixby Creek to the shoreline beneath Bixby Bridge.
