Classic Carmel Cottage in Carmel-By-The-Sea

This charming arts and crafts home, built in 1939, is a Carmel classic, with batten and board single wall construction, wood-mullioned windows, gable roof and exposed ceiling beams.  The main house spans two lots, leaving ample room for the large patio and park-like garden in the back.  Light filters into the house through nearly 300 window panes, over plants lining a tiled entry way, into a living room with high beamed ceilings and brick fireplace; dining room with French doors that open onto a large sunny interior courtyard, large den/library with pull out softbed; 2 bedrooms, and 3 full baths.  A separate guest cottage has a third bedroom with wood burning stove, and another full bath.  The park-like garden is shaded by twelve live oaks, landscaped around meandering pathways with native and non-native plants, and surrounded by an ivy-covered grape stake fence.

The home is a convenient 1 block walk to Carmel Beach, and Pebble Beach Gate, and downtown Carmel with its galleries, restaurants and specialty shops.
