Perfect Carmel Point location meets rustic Big Sur charm. This property embraces the quiet enchanting side of the California coastal lifestyle with easy access in two mere blocks to pristine Carmel beaches. Tucked behind a cypress canopy discover the private hideaway, a dramatic redwood architectural piece resting in its natural habitat. Enter to soaring, open-beam ceilings, expansive windows displaying garden views and thoughtfully placed skylights filling the home with natural light while warm wood details remain a theme throughout. A fireplace with rustic wood mantel centers the large living room that opens to dining area and kitchen. Down the hall is a bedroom, and a full bath featuring sunken tub under skylight. Two primary bedrooms with ensuite baths on different levels, one offering garden and distant hill views with a deck, the other featuring French doors to the backyard patio. Through a separate entrance sit a bonus room, full bath, and large hobby room with a wall of geometric windows. A distinctive nod to Carmel's Bohemian roots.
