Property Description
Tucked away in a private cul-de-sac in the heart of Carmel Village, this enchanting cottage is ready for a new owner to restore its timeless charm. Highlights include rich hardwood floors, open-beamed ceilings, and a grand brick gas fireplace, adding warmth and character to the living space. The kitchen and breakfast nook are bathed in natural light thanks to a wall of windows overlooking the picturesque backyard and the serene beauty of nature beyond. Upstairs, the primary bedroom offers a peaceful retreat with an attached private bathroom, creating a thoughtful separation of space. Downstairs, a secondary living area features two bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a sunlit room with its own cozy fireplace. A separate utility room leads to a delightful brick patio where steps wind down to a charming art studio perfect for creative inspiration. Ideally located within walking distance of downtown Carmel, Mission Trail Park, and the beloved Outdoor Forest Theater, this property offers both tranquility and convenience. With easy access to Carmel High School, the Barnyard shopping center, and tall the treasures of Carmel-by-the-Sea, the best of the Peninsula is just moments away. Appraisal $1.9Million (June 2025)
