Escape to Nature's Paradise at Taktang Big Sur

Discover the Enchantment of Taktsang Big Sur: A Secluded Retreat

Nestled within the serene landscapes of Big Sur, Taktsang Big Sur stands as a testament to architectural wonder and natural beauty. This secluded retreat spans a majestic 9.5 acres, offering an unparalleled escape into nature's embrace. Drawing inspiration from the mystical aura of Himalayan monasteries, Taktsang Big Sur presents a panoramic spectacle of the rugged coastline that defines this iconic Californian treasure.

Architectural Marvel Meets Natural Splendor

The genesis of Taktsang Big Sur traces back to the visionary concept by Richard Clements in 1970, initially imagined as an awe-inspiring hotel lobby. It was later, under the visionary architectural prowess of Mickey Muennig in the 1990s, that Taktsang was reborn as an extraordinary residence, blending seamlessly with the surrounding landscapes. The heart of this sanctuary, the "great room," is an architectural masterpiece featuring robust concrete pillars, a towering two-story stone fireplace, and a mesmerizing glass pyramid ceiling that invites the sky indoors.

A Residence Crafted for Harmony and Tranquility

Taktsang Big Sur is more than a home; it's a journey into tranquility and harmony. The residence boasts an open kitchen situated upstairs, designed as the culinary heart of the home with sweeping views of the ocean's infinite expanse. The master wing is a sanctuary of peace, featuring a bedroom adorned with a sunken tub and an introspective meditation cave, offering a personal oasis for reflection and rejuvenation.

Embrace the Outdoors: Decks, Gardens, and Terraces

The connection with nature is ever-present in Taktsang Big Sur, with expansive decks, lush gardens, and serene terraces enveloping the residence. These outdoor spaces invite residents and guests alike to immerse themselves in the breathtaking beauty of Big Sur, making every moment at Taktsang a celebration of nature's unparalleled artistry.

Taktsang Big Sur is not just an address; it's a destination for those seeking to escape the ordinary and embrace the extraordinary amidst the natural wonders of Big Sur.
