BIG SUR – A property in Big Sur that was once owned by legendary early European settlers to the area, the Pfeiffer family, is listed for the first time in nearly 60 years for $100 million.
The “Heart of Rancho Rico,” located at 47320 Highway 1 and 47324 Highway 1, was last purchased by Cyril Chappellet, a former Lockheed executive, in 1965, according to listing agent Tim Allen of Tim Allen Properties Team, an affiliated agent with the Carmel-by-the-Sea/Junipero office of Coldwell Banker Realty in Northern California. The 150-acre parcel of land has stayed in the family since that time and is now being sold by his grandchildren, C. Blake, Michele and Kira Forrest.

The property is located about 30 miles south of Carmel, within walking distance of the Big Sur Community, and features Pacific Ocean coastline and private beach access with views of the Santa Lucia Mountains. It is one of several parcels that were once owned by Chappallet.
The Big Sur property features a modern ranch-style main house, built in the late 1940s comprising four bedrooms, all of which are en suite with full bathrooms, an additional partial bathroom and three fireplaces in 3,750 square feet of living space. (Tim Allen Properties)
“Four generations of our family have spent time on this property for the past 60 years,” said C. Blake Forrest, one of the owners, in a press release. “Our grandfather, Cyril Chappellet, purchased the land in 1965 and our mother inherited it from him. As kids, my sisters Michele and Kira, and I would spend most of our summers at the ‘ranch,’ as he called it.”
