Located in Fort Bragg’s leafy Northeast neighborhood among homes of equal caliber, 400 Winifred Street is an architect-designed California ranch enriched with English cottage details. Offered for only the second time in nearly 70 years, this remarkably original home remains a true time capsule–untouched, unspoiled, and faithful to its highly personal architectural vision.From the front door, the full depth of the home unfolds toward a broad bank of south-facing dining room windows overlooking a lush wall of greenery, providing exceptional privacy. The interior is defined by rich, clear-grain redwood walls, warm wood-beamed ceilings, hardwood floors, an immense brick inglenook fireplace, and a built-in grill with copper hood. The open floor plan and thoughtfully integrated kitchen remain remarkably effective and livable nearly seven decades later.The primary bedroom features a full wall of closets and an east-facing window overlooking the morning sun. Two additional bright bedrooms offer ample storage and south-facing window walls with built-in shelving. The hallway includes generous storage, including an unusual bank of pull-out linen trays. A pull-down stair leads to an attic with additional storage.A Dutch door from the dining room opens directly onto the sunny south-facing patio, creating a seamless connection between the interior and garden. The original design recessed the floor framing into the crawl space to eliminate steps between indoors and out–a quintessentially 1950s California approach to living. The patio leads to an established rear garden and upper terrace with sunset views. The expansive south-facing roof slope is well suited for future solar panels.The mature garden comes alive in spring and features a magnificent magnolia tree.400 Winifred Street is a rare and special house in a special place–an intact example of mid-century California architecture awaiting its next steward to appreciate, preserve, and carry forward its remarkable character.
