About this home

Serene and private coastal retreat overlooking the vast Pacific Ocean. A rare David Allen Smith design, grand cathedral ceilings are balanced by warm natural wood accents. The welcoming floorpan creates a natural flow from the three spacious decks to the custom kitchen, dining and living room areas. When you're not entertaining, retire to the peaceful master suite located thoughtfully away from the guest wing. If you must do a little work, the second bedroom features two side-by-side built-in desks and bookcases for the ideal work from home set up. Iconic Carmel-by-Sea is located 15 minutes away and the wonders of Big Sur are just a stunning 25 minute drive down the coast. The expansive one acre parcel could allow for opportunity to expand. The extensive southwest facing windows bring the outside in on this one acre plus lot. Incredible light. The one acre lot provides privacy and opportunity
