At the very end of 8th Avenue on over a half-acre parcel of private and tranquil land overlooking Mission Trail Nature Preserve, this special property has not been on the market in over forty years. The single level home features over 2,000sf of living space that was completely renovated in 2015. There is an open kitchen and dining area, a spacious living room, two bedroom suites with walk-in cedar closets and another guest bedroom that leads to a library with cathedral ceilings with skylights, floor to ceiling bookcases and a freestanding fireplace. There is also a powder room, laundry room and a detached two-car garage. From the prolific succulents and mature landscaping to the meticulously maintained home, this is an exceptional property with a rare combination of size, privacy and walkability. A mere step beyond Carmel-by-the-Sea city limits, this parcel, unusually flat for its surroundings, offers potential for future expansion.
