Make Carmel part of your own distinguished legacy. Here within an established neighborhood at the base of picturesque green mountains, this attractive property in the Carmel Unified School District sits ready to help you achieve a balanced, healthful lifestyle. A single-level residence built in 1956, it has been maintained in turn-key condition for its next owners, who will revel in this prime spot minutes from beaches and downtown Carmel-by-the-Sea. With scenic biking trails, peaceful nature paths, and Barnyard Shopping Center around the corner, outlets for exercise, adventure, good food and fun are always close at hand. Find your front entry hidden behind a pink jasmine-shrouded privacy fence. Inside are light-filled rooms where each detail recalls a simpler time when things were made to last. A brick fireplace anchors the living room, offset by sliding glass windows on one side and, on the other, built-in bookcases to house your collection of rare first editions or cherished mementos. Step outside, where tiny birds sing and hop around a feeder as you explore the colorful profusion of flowering plants and lush foliage that encircles your impressively landscaped yard and patio. Here, embrace the Monterey Peninsula's storied past so that you can be part of its limitless future.
