A Carmel Views address puts the best of Monterey Peninsula within easy reach. At the gateway to Carmel Valley, this home offers a residential setting convenient to Carmel-by-the-Sea’s galleries and restaurants, Carmel Beach, the coastal trails of Point Lobos and Pebble Beach’s iconic 17-Mile Drive. Carmel Valley and Monterey offer even more to explore. Closer to home, the Crossroads and The Barnyard provide groceries, shops, cafes and dining, with Carmel High School nearby. The home is made for both gathering and retreat. Vaulted ceilings and exposed beams lend character to the living room, where a fireplace and hardwood floors add warmth. The kitchen features a cooktop island and double ovens and the dining area opens to the rear patio. The primary room leads to a private deck. A flexible adjoining room and a separate bonus space with an attached half bath offer more ways to use the home. Mature landscaping, a deck and paver patios extend the living space outdoors, while a two-car garage adds everyday convenience.
