The Orange County Register reported Wednesday that the San Clemente property is being sold by retired Allergan CEO Gavin Herbert, who has owned it for 35 years.
Nixon bought the 5½-acre spread on a secluded coastal bluff in 1969 and called it La Casa Pacifica.
The president said he liked watching surfers during walks on the beach.
When Nixon resigned from office, he returned to the retreat to write his memoirs. He moved to New York in 1980 and sold it to Herbert.
