Property is move-in ready.
While originally built in 1927, the property is described as meticulous and features a high-end chef's kitchen with modern stainless steel appliances (including a French-door wall oven) and granite countertops. The guest cottage is well-maintained and functional. The overall condition and high-quality finishes suggest a significant renovation within the last 5-15 years, making it move-in ready.
The property features a rare and meticulous 1920s 'Hansel & Gretel' style design, offering the quintessential Carmel charm that is highly coveted by luxury buyers and collectors.
The inclusion of a separate 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom guest house with its own kitchen and living area provides exceptional versatility for multi-generational living or hosting guests.
The grounds are expertly curated with manicured boxwood hedges, fruit trees, and meandering pathways, creating a private and enchanting outdoor sanctuary that maximizes the 4,000 sqft lot.
Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1351, other record living area = 950. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 3, other record bedroom count = 2.
At a list price of $2.8 million for 1,351 square feet, the property commands a significant premium of over $2,000 per square foot, which may limit the pool of value-driven buyers.
Because the total square footage is split between the main house and a detached cottage, the individual living areas and bedrooms are inherently compact, potentially feeling restrictive for those seeking a spacious primary residence.
As Carmel Storybook as it gets. This meticulous 1920's cottage features a detached, 1 bed, 1 bath guest cottage with its own kitchen and living area. The eye-catching Hansel & Gretel-style roof and enchanting gardens with fruit trees set the tone from the moment you arrive. Two private and distinct outdoor spaces, usable balconies, meandering pathways and manicured boxwood hedges create a setting that feels worlds away. Inside, the main cottage offers a chef's kitchen, and warm gathering spaces centered around an original Carmel Stone fireplace, and two charming bedrooms and two full baths. A rare opportunity to own a quintessential Carmel cottage with guest quarters and timeless storybook appeal.
