Carmel's most desirable communities. The great room features a dramatic 20-foot vaulted ceiling, while the two-story breakfast nook-with skylights and seamless alignment to the sunroom-creates an open, light-filled, and highly social kitchen layout. An adjacent room offers excellent flexibility as a scullery kitchen, providing additional prep space and appliance storage. The main-level primary suite includes a large tub, separate shower, and generous closet space. Elegant finishes throughout the home include crown molding, plantation shutters, and solid six-panel hardwood doors. The expansive lower level is designed for both entertaining and everyday living, offering a family room with fireplace, wet bar, and daylight windows, along with a fifth bedroom, adjoining recreation room, office, and cedar closet-bright, welcoming, and highly functional. A striking two-story entry with leaded glass sets the tone for this thoughtfully designed residence. Built with solid 26 exterior walls for enhanced insulation and complemented by professionally landscaped grounds, the home sits on a generous 0.4-acre lot. The fully fenced backyard features two distinct outdoor living areas, including a lower paver patio and an elevated deck connected to the main level.
