Welcome to the Old Summit Schoolhouse on the beautiful rural west side of Paso Robles wine country. Our private two acres is all yours to enjoy during your next trip to the Central Coast. Located within 2 to 15 minutes from all of the best boutique wineries in the area, you're just a short drive away from your next tasting experience. Want a break from the wine trail? Take the 30-minute scenic drive to the coast and spend the day exploring Cambria, Moonstone Beach, Hearst Castle, San Simeon and Big Sur to the North....or, Cayucos, Harmony and Morro Bay to the South. Horseback riding, hiking, shopping, shell-hunting, wildlife viewing and miles of pristine coastline are close-at-hand.
Our home was built circa 1890 and in service as a one-room schoolhouse until 1943. Serving grades K-12, students arrived via horseback and were warmed by a traditional pot-belly stove...you'll see the burn scars in the wood floor from the embers. Fast-forward to 2013, when we bought the property and spent an entire year restoring many historic features, while adding some modern comfort.
You will find two bedrooms, one primary with en-suite bathroom and a guest bedroom with direct access to the hallway bathroom. There is a large great room that flows into a modern kitchen complete with a Viking range and all the cooking accessories you'll need to make a gourmet meal. Central air and heat will keep you comfortable during all seasons. For those colder mornings and evenings warm up next to our Thelin pot belly stove for some extra coziness.
Outdoors you will enjoy a large front porch with a vineyard-view, ceiling fans and seating for four. The perfect spot for morning coffee, reading a book or enjoying a glass of wine. The expansive backyard offers a deck off the primary bedroom, a patio dining area for 8, propane-fed fire pit with seating for 6 and lit bocce ball court. Extensive landscape lighting allows for enjoying those summer nights al fresco and listening for our resident owls.
The property really is a special place tucked just far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the growing wine region, but still only a 15-minute drive to downtown Paso Robles or Templeton. Enjoy!
