This extraordinary Carmel Highlands is a rare offering steeped in history, artistry and timeless coastal beauty. Designed to live flexibly, the home can be enjoyed as two or three separate units or one expansive family retreat. Originally built as a 915 sq ft cabin, the home was thoughtfully expanded in 1975 with a striking architectural addition designed by Peter Lee and crafted by master builder Stephen Trapkus alongside the current family who have cherished it for over 50 years. The result is a soulful blend of rustic charm and architectural elegance, where soaring wood-beamed ceilings, rich hardwood floors, and walls of glass frame sweeping wooded and peek-a-boo ocean views. Natural light floods every room, creating warm and inviting interiors that harmonize with the surrounding redwoods, Monterey pines, and rugged coastline. Carmel Highlands itself has a storied legacy, envisioned in 1915 by Frank Devendorf as a creative haven for artists, writers, and sculptors. Now enhanced with modern amenities, including high-speed internet for those seeking both seclusion and connectivity. This property embodies the magic of Carmel Highlands where history, art, and nature converge. Private Beach Access! Welcome Home!
