Tarp House
The Tarp House is an iconic Sea Ranch residence shaped over 40 years by renowned architect Obie Bowman, FAIA, recipient of the 2022 Sea Ranch Distinguished Architect Award. Lovingly preserved and restored, this three-bedroom retreat blends vintage design, contemporary art, and modern amenities within a serene forest setting. The main house features two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a loft overlooking the living space, creating a warm and inviting gathering place. The detached king suite includes a striking architectural screen and a private elevated walkway leading to a cedar and glass hot tub pavilion. A beautifully designed period-inspired chef’s kitchen connects the dining room to expansive outdoor decks ideal for dining and entertaining. An open-air bridge leads to a separate king studio suite with a full bath, Peloton bike, yoga space, and soaring views of the surrounding redwoods. Surrounded by nature, the home feels immersed in the landscape while offering thoughtful comforts throughout. Located in south Sea Ranch, it provides easy access to iconic early homes, Moonraker Recreation Center, and The Sea Ranch Lodge.
