0 SW Santa Rita 4 SW of Ocean ST, Carmel, CA 93923

Property Description

Behind the gates lies a magnificent secret garden, a sweeping, private sanctuary that reveals itself the moment you step through. This generous front yard, hidden from Santa Rita's quiet street just 3 blocks from town, is a world entirely its own: secluded, enveloping, and unexpected. Ancient oaks arch overhead, canopying a Brazilian hardwood deck perfectly suited to Carmel's effortless indoor-outdoor living. Inside, the finishes are extraordinary. Jerusalem limestone floors flow beneath soaring vaulted wood ceilings, where skylights pour natural light across every surface. In the living room, a jewel-toned stained-glass window casts luminous color, while a dramatic stone fireplace anchors the room. The chef's kitchen features Viking and Bosch appliances, custom beadboard cabinetry, granite countertops, a tile backsplash, a butcher block island, and a built-in wine refrigerator, all framed by graceful arched doorways that speak to the home's artisan craftsmanship. A three-bedroom layout with two primary suites means everyone finds their retreat, whether beneath the skylights or among the oaks. A Juliet balcony, stone garden paths, and terra cotta rooflines weave it all together into something that feels less like a property and more like a place you were always meant to find.
