Tucked into a quiet Carmel Valley neighborhood, this rare one-acre parcel offers Mal Paso water, county-approved plans, and an ideal blend of privacy and convenience. Carver Studio Architects designed a 2,265 sq ft 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath woodland-contemporary residence with a detached two-car garage and beautiful south-facing valley vistas. A private, gentle knoll framed by mature oaks creates a serene building site with excellent southern exposure and natural screening from the road. The location is exceptionally convenient - just a quick drive to the Mid Valley Shopping Center, 11 minutes to Carmel Valley Village, and 15 minutes to Carmel-by-the-Sea. With a Cal-Am water meter already in place and 0.25 acre-feet of Mal Paso water included, the groundwork is set for building your Carmel Valley retreat. Contractor introductions available upon request.

Carmel, located between Carmel Valley Road and the Santa Lucia foothills, is a rural and village-style Carmel Valley Village neighborhood with vineyard views and oak-studded hillsides. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Carmel Valley Road corridor near Mid Valley Shopping Center, where tasting rooms, galleries, and patio dining set a relaxed, walkable rhythm. Architectural cues lean toward ranch homes, cottage-inspired builds, and low-slung residences that follow the valley’s contours. Folktale Winery & Vineyards, Bernardus Lodge & Spa, and the Sunset Center anchor local culture with wine, hospitality, and performing arts. Garland Ranch Regional Park frames the outdoor backdrop with trailheads and river scenery. The pace stays unhurried, shaped by open land, equestrian properties, and a strong connection to the valley landscape.
