This true Carmel by the Sea Cottage, marries the magic of a dramatic coastal garden with the beauty and simplicity of a fully reimagined, renovated residence. While maintaining the home's original character, master builder Al Saroyan refurbished this 2 bedroom 2 bath cottage adding amenities such as black walnut flooring, travertine bathrooms, copper sinks and custom cabinetry. The kitchen features top end appliances and rich wood countertops. With three dutch doors, Carmel stone fireplace, open beamed ceilings, and sun drenched living areas, the cottage is cozy and enchanting. A finished one car garage provides ample storage and laundry. The oversize 5000 sq ft lot with numerous seating areas offers the potential for expansion. Carmel stone steps and walls and grape stake fencing intermingle with a veil of coastal oaks and lush plantings. Just a short stroll to the center of town, this cottage offers privacy, walkability, and the unique quality of life only found in Carmel by the Sea.
