Located just three minutes by car off of Carmel Valley Road, the house is a brisk twenty minute walk into Carmel Valley Village and a leisurely twenty minute drive into Carmel-by-the-Sea!
‘Life is Good’ is located in a very quiet neighborhood and we like it that way:) The house is not suited for parties due to the noise factor.
Parking limited to three cars.
We are pet friendly.
$75.00 fee for dogs/cats.
The yard is not fully-fenced. Dogs must stay on lead or respond to voice command. No roaming off-property. The house has no a/c! ‘Master’ bedroom: New firm, queen mattress, foam topper. Preparing for sleep, the sky offers you views of the moon as it glides across the sky.
The upstairs bathroom, shower/tub, has a glass-bloc wall allowing the sun to shine in while ensuring complete privacy.
The second upstairs bedroom is roomy and bright with tall windows facing west and north. Queen bed w/new firm mattress.
Walking downstairs, linger a moment on the landing to enjoy the exquisite tile work while looking out the window on the east for wildlife sightings! You might just see a pair of intelligent animal eyes peeking back at you!
The downstairs bedroom with private access to the bathroom, has a queen bed (soft) and french doors leading to the patio.
The downstairs bathroom, accessible from the bedroom or the living area, is decorated with tiles hand-crafted by local artisans.
The kitchen offers a gas stove/oven, refrigerator w/ice maker, microwave, toaster, dishwasher, blender and has a washer/dryer in the pantry. Plates, bowls, utensils, pots and pans, cutlery ~ everything one might need to make their stay here as comfortable as possible are provided.

Food take-out suggestions: Trailside Cafe, Kathy's Little Kitchen, Thai Village, Running Iron, Rustica Cafe, Los Laureles Lodge, to name a few!

Why they chose this property

Stunning interior, decorated colorfully with tiles from the owners' world travels, this property is perfect for romantic get-aways, family vacations and groups. Very private, situated on the hillside, away from rural traffic. Within walking distance of Kahn Ranch and five minutes driving distance to Garland Park. CVVillage currently has 15 wine tasting room, all within a brisk 20 minute walk from the house!

What makes this property unique

Only five minutes from the village of Carmel Valley, this property is very private and quiet. Gorgeous southern views from both patios, propane BBQ to roast those veggies you just bought at CV's Sunday Farmer's Market and perhaps local wine from any of the excellent vineyards here and voila! You've started your weekend just right!!
Tiles abound, lending a sense of fun, adventure and whimsy here. You're invited; please come and stay:)
