About this property

Spacious home in Carmel: one mile to downtown.

5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, open concept floor plan with large kitchen, expansive living room, and dining for 10.

The main floor boasts a large custom kitchen equipped with top-of-the line appliances, granite countertops, and plenty of space to create a memorable meal together. The dining table comfortably sits 10. The living room is a wonderful area to relax, watch TV, or visit with family, friends, or coworkers. Three sets of French doors lead out from the living area to a cozy private patio with outside seating, a gas barbecue, beautiful plantings, and mature oak trees.

The main floor also contains four bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. There are two sets of Jack and Jill bedrooms, each with a queen bed and its own set of French doors leading outside. A compact washer/dryer closet completes the first floor.

The second floor is comprised of the primary bedroom suite and a separate sitting room at the top of the stairway. The primary bedroom has a California king bed, 2 comfortable chairs, a gas fireplace, a TV, a walk-in closet, and a large bathroom with 2 sinks, a Jacuzzi tub, and a large tiled shower. The sitting room has a cozy couch and is the perfect place to read a book or watch TV.

The home has an attached 2-car garage and a gated paved driveway for 2-3 cars.

The perfect house for families and friends to gather and relax. Also works well for a small corporate retreat/meeting place.

Our house is located in a quiet neighborhood in Carmel. We ask our guests to respect our neighbors and observe the local noise ordinance.

Excellent stay in Carmel! The house was extremely clean and fully equipped with everything we needed. Very large kitchen, dining/living room, and outdoor space was great for spending time together as a large family. Just a short safe walk to all the restaurants and shops.

Beautiful house in a great location! The kitchen had a full compliment of dishes, bowls, pans, and gadgets. I made French Toast for breakfast one day for my group of 9. There is a nice outdoor section that we enjoyed too.

The quality and attention to detail in the entire house more than exceeded my expectations. The area is incredibly walkable with walking access into town and to Mission Trail Park, a delightful heavily treed park which allowed access to the mission.

A beautiful, spacious, quiet, family home. Impressively well-supplied kitchen from every imaginable size of pots and pans, glassware of all types. Lovely outdoor seating suitable for children and adults. Although not walkable to beach for most people, we never had a problem finding parking at the beach. We’d love to return to this home again.

Spacious Carmel Home

The high ceilings and open floor plan give the main level a spacious, airy feel. The large kitchen, family room, and dining area are perfect for gathering, and the kitchen and bar are well stocked with all the essentials. There are four bedrooms, including two Jack-and-Jill bathrooms on the main floor, and a massive primary suite upstairs, along with a cozy den/TV room. The home is updated, spotless, and very comfortable—we’d gladly stay here again.

Very beautiful house. Spacious. Well designed. Flexibility in terms of accommodating our group's sleeping arrangements. Quiet sleeping quarters. Plenty of bathrooms. Plenty of space for dining. First rate kitchen. Great family room, with long couch and blankets. Only minor issue was sparse area for parking vehicles. Just a bit tight.

Perfect getaway

This was a perfect Vrbo for our group of 10 adults. We all were able to comfortably fit and there was room for all of us to spend time with one another throughout the home. The living area and outdoor space was unreal. The hosts were accommodating and so helpful with the instructions and info provided in the home to make it a seamless stay. They thought of everything to make it a perfect stay. We walked to town once but it was a quick, under 5 minute drive. Can’t recommend this rental enough!!

Beautiful Upscale Home

This home is spectacular! It is spacious and modern, and it was perfect for our group of nine people. The home is very well-furnished and very comfortable. The kitchen is great, with high end appliances, a wide variety of kitchen tools, and plenty of working space. The location of the home is quiet and serene, but also convenient to all of the attractions that Carmel has to offer. We walked to the historic mission and also to the downtown center, which is loaded with restaurants and shops. You absolutely cannot go wrong in choosing this home for your gathering.

Birthday/Anniversary Holiday

The house was perfect for our family! It was comfortable, well-equipped, clean, stylish and hosts were communicative and accessible. The location could not have been better for a family who enjoys nature, golf, running, and a quick last minute trip to the toy store to help Santa out!
