Description

A bit larger than average, a bit more of a view than average and on the newer side of construction. What more could you want for under $2M? Floor plan is nice and open with a lot of light and lovely wood floors on lower level. Enjoy entertaining in the recently and beautifully remodeled kitchen that is open to the Living Room and Dining Area. Dining area flows out through French doors to the large back deck with party lights, infrared heater, and good peeks of the ocean that adds to the entertaining space. Upstairs are three bedrooms with vaulted ceilings each featuring more peeks of the ocean. The primary has the nicest peek with a view of Point Lobos. Also includes a large walk in closet and double paned windows for additional sound proofing. Sellers spent a lot of money adding a nice long driveway suitable for plenty of parking. House just completely repainted inside.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources. This description is from May 24, 2026

    "It is the first neighborhood I’ve ever lived in that every neighbor keeps to themselves! No one comes out to say hello—they just scurry into the house, avoid eye contact when smiled at in close proximity, & they peek at anyone outdoors as if they are a zombie looking for your next victim... very peculiar, when FUN is a crime, & silent ghost street is what it feels like to go out for a walk. Eerie"

    "Carmel Woods is set high enough above sea level that I can see peeks of the ocean at carmel beach. The trees are hundreds of feet TALL, & pruned to be bare, stripped of mud-length branches—prehistoric in appearance. The neighbors are all isolated and hardly social. I have never gotten beyond small talk in the 3 yrs of living here. Pollen is extremely allergenic, even in me, who is not allergic. Quiet street, to a fault. "
