Tucked away just a few blocks from downtown Carmel-by-the-Sea, this beautifully reimagined coastal retreat offers the perfect balance of privacy, scale, and style. Set behind lush tropical landscaping, the home lives like a private sanctuary while still being moments from world-class restaurants, shops, and white sand beaches. Thoughtfully redesigned from the ground up, the residence features approximately 1,800 square feet of light-filled living space with radiant heated floors, surround sound, and an open-concept layout ideal for modern living. The kitchen is a showpiece, with a large marble central island, clean-line cabinetry, and stainless appliances, flowing seamlessly into the vaulted great room with a striking marble-wrapped fireplace. The spacious primary suite includes a generous walk-in closet and spa-inspired bath. Larger-than-average bedrooms are a rare find in Carmel, offering comfort and flexibility for guests or family. Multiple outdoor living areas from the secluded courtyard to the sun-drenched upper deck make it easy to relax, entertain, or simply enjoy views of Point Lobos in the distance. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence or a weekend escape, this is a turn-key opportunity in one of Carmels most coveted neighborhoods.
