This is a true villa on a 1 acre estate between Hwy 1 and the ocean. Carmel Highlands is located 5 minutes from downtown Carmel. Pebble Beach and the Aquarium are 15 minutes away. In the early 1900's, Carmel was largely an artists community. Many artists struggled, the successful lived in the Highlands. The Highlands is the beginning of Big Sur which continues on another 100 miles. The villa is rural yet it is not isolated, walk to the Highlands General Store, 5 minutes to dinner in downtown. Travel 1 minute south of the villa and the coastline changes dramatically. Many wonderful ocean views from the yard, porch and living room of the villa. Pt. Lobos State Reserve is very near for miles of hikes. You can explore forever.
The villa was built in 1953 and reconstructed in 2005. The reconstruction updated and remodeled the villa to bring back the feeling of old California such as the 250 year Mexican arches and the hand carved bedroom doors from the days of Junipero Serra. For rose lovers there are 150 rose bushes on the property. Come experience the magic of Carmel Highlands.
Perfect for family reunions and birthdays with it's four bedrooms, (2) king beds, (2) queen beds. There is a formal dining room for your family or an outside deck off the dining room with a custom table for 8. Wander the grounds and gardens of the level one acre estate and play volleyball on the back lawn if you like. Photo opportunities abound under the stone arches or the deck with the ocean and rock caves at Birdrock. Occasionally you will hear the sea lions bark, smell the ocean air, wander the many gardens with the Pacific in your backyard.The weather by the sea can best be described as two seasons of Spring and two seasons of Fall.
