Why the Owner Chose Carmel By the Sea
As John Steinback, a world traveler said, "There is no more beautiful sight in the world than Point Lobos." There are views of Point Lobos from our balconies and the front living room. I had dated an author that lived in the Carmel Highlands in my late 20's and fell in love with this secluded neighborhood. This is nature at it's finest, looking through the tree silhouettes at sunsets over blue ocean waters. Californians are friendly and fun to be with.
The Unique Benefits at this House
Eating outdoors is a luxury. There are many seating areas on the decks and balconies that make it fun to view the grounds and ocean views from different vistas. As an entertainer, we have loaded the house with the special cooking items like an electric ice cream maker, Belgium waffle maker, and gadgets galore. The assortment of birds and wildlife are fascinating and fun to watch.
