Rare Opportunity to Own a Stunning Home with Acreage in West Carmel

Set behind a long tree-lined drive on nearly five private wooded acres, this West Carmel estate offers a setting that is increasingly difficult to find - exceptional privacy, expansive grounds, and remarkable flexibility, all just minutes from Carmel's premier shopping, dining, schools, and major corridors. The home's main living spaces open directly to the patio, pool, and open-air pool house, creating an easy connection between indoor and outdoor living. Whether hosting friends, gathering with family, or enjoying a quiet evening outdoors, the layout makes the most of the property's picturesque setting, complete with mature trees, perennial gardens, fruit trees, and expansive lawn areas. The main level features a spacious great room with elevated ceiling, exposed beams, and a stone hearth fireplace, travertine floors, formal dining room with a masonry fireplace, private office, two powder baths, and a mudroom with dog wash station. The updated kitchen includes Sub-Zero refrigeration, Thermador double ovens and gas cooktop, Fisher & Paykel drawer dishwashers, quartz countertops, Blanco sink, and oversized center island. The formal dining room also offers flexibility as a future main-level primary suite. Upstairs, the primary suite occupies a private wing with a domed ceiling, limestone fireplace, custom walk-in closet, and spacious bath. A guest suite, two additional bedrooms and bath, plus a third-floor bedroom with adjoining flex space and full bath provide versatility for guests, multigenerational living, a home office, fitness, or recreation. The finished lower level offers a large gathering area, kitchenette, recreation room, powder bath, and abundant storage. The open-air pool house, complete with a full kitchen, bath, and laundry, extends the home's living and entertaining space. The combination of nearly five wooded acres, flexible living spaces, and a West Carmel location is one that's seldom available.
