About this home

Past a moss-hued artisan wall, through a golden gate, nestled among flowers lies an exquisite home from the page of a storybook fairytale. Lovingly and thoughtfully designed with art, elegance, family, and nature in mind, this two-story English tutor-style home sits on a rare fully usable acre in the Carmel Highlands overlooking the sea with sweeping views, vaulted ceilings, European oak hardwood floors, and 3 wood burning fireplaces. Privacy is paramount, with a well-maintained perimeter wall and fencing, beautiful handmade doors and gates, and other storybook surprises. There are 2 primary suites with ocean views, one upstairs in the main house and the other in the connected guest quarters. The home has many bonus areas including a professional soundproof music room, a basement, a large buttery, a whole house generator, EV charging, and a generously sized dog run. The partially wooded grounds are landscaped with new irrigation and enjoy vistas from many entertaining spaces.
