A standalone residence within the gated community of Del Mesa, this property is your pathway to peace in Carmel. Find a warm sunspot cast across your furniture, illuminating rich, textured flooring. Wall-to-wall windows stretch all the way from the formal dining room, lining an adjacent living room featuring shed vaulted ceilings and a stately fireplace, and continuing into a bonus room with access to a wraparound deck through sliding glass doors. Transform this flexible space into your home office, media room, or library. Or, close it off as a guest bedroom for visiting loved ones. Each room offers a way to feel intimately connected to nature as you glimpse California live oak trees cavorting and twisting their magnificently knotty branches alongside your private sanctuary. This home offers an abundance of storage in each room, including the kitchen with its chic white cabinetry and an impressive pantry with little hidden compartments to surprise and delight. Del Mesa is a panacea for those seeking a particular balance of space, privacy, restorative sunshine, accessibility and community in a Carmel zip code. Walk to the indoor pool and spa, or sit down to lunch with newfound friends at Club Mesa. Let life be simple and beautiful. Here, everything you want is but steps away.
