The air brims to its edges with birds trilling in every tree, like harmonic vibrations of the universe itself. The place is located on a private road branching from another private road leading to the Kahn Ranch less than a quarter of a mile away. The cabin is a short hike from Garland Ranch and Sleepy Hollow. Nearly two acres, the property is rich with redwoods, pines, oaks and broadleaf trees sloping from a high, rounded hillside to a meadow evenly divided by a creek curling over boulders and spanned by a wooden bridge barely two-cars wide. There are only three other houses are located on the private drive, making the road exclusive. The cabin is deep in get-away-country, where a single sigh describes volumes of contentment. A stand of tall redwoods serve as genteel sentinels at the front walkway to the structure. The cabin has shingle siding, an Artist Studio, patio and decks with breathtaking views of the mountains. Despite the cabin’s soothing backcountry feel, Carmel Valley Village is less than seven minutes away, and Carmel only 30, assuming anyone wants to leave in the first place. The interior is the real thing, beginning in the living room, with its big wood-burning fireplace, with an enclosed sun room. Adjacent is the Galley Kitchen, with stairs leading to 3 Bedrooms. There’s also a back door and steps to a large, squared courtyard touched by the hillside and open to the sky. Throughout the house, ceilings are gently peaked with exposed beams, and although it was built in the 70’s, it is profoundly solid due to the Post and Pier foundation, a treasured find anywhere, never mind under a sweet-time cabin in the woods. For more industrious activities, there’s a detached double garage with space, and a few steps to the front door. A myriad of projects or activities could claim property rights in the side yard, with postcard views. Grassland on a little slope of hillside nourishing a perfectly formed redwood and a bench are perfect for reading and relaxing while the gentle breeze moves between the trees as the patented style of relaxation that Carmel Valley inspires.
