Little River | $820,000
A 1944 cottage with two bedrooms and one bathroom, on a 1.6-acre lot
This house has had only two owners since it was built, and much of its original fairy-tale charm — including the low ceilings, leaded-glass windows and vine-covered exterior — has been preserved. The property is in a small community with a few hundred year-round residents, most of whom make the six-mile trip to the center of Mendocino for shopping and services. The area is home to several notable hotels, including Heritage House Resort and Spa, which is on the beach just across the street from this house.
