Set on 2.5 usable acres, this rare retreat is everything an escape should be- spectacular views, total privacy, and the feeling of a world all your own. Sweeping vistas captivate in two directions: the twinkling lights of Salinas on one side with the rolling hills of Carmel Valley on the other. It's the kind of place where the day's worries fall away- mornings begin with coffee and a view, days end with a soak in the hot tub under open sky, and weekends belong to the pool, wet sauna, and the land itself. The 3,000+ square-foot main house offers comfortable, light-filled living with room to spread out and settle in, while the 960 square-foot barn/workshop invites endless possibilities a hobbyist's haven, artist's studio, car collector's dream, or wonderfully generous storage. Two driveways and ample parking make it easy to welcome guests, toys, and trailers alike. With ~$100K in recent upgrades including a new water heater, furnace, sub area plumbing, exterior paint, hardware, and more, the home is ready to be enjoyed immediately. Perched at the top of Laureles Grade, you're minutes from Carmel Valley Village and Highway 68, with Carmel and Pebble Beach close at hand-yet a world apart. This is the escape you've been waiting for, ready to be cherished for generations to come.
