ABOUT THIS HOME

Set amidst the peaceful surroundings of the gated Laurelwood community in Carmel, this distinguished residence exemplifies elegant living. Offering over 6000 square feet, the home is thoughtfully designed to provide comfort, privacy, and everyday ease. The all-brick exterior and manicured landscape give way to a thoughtful interior, lovingly updated to appeal to today's discerning buyers. Warm, wide plank hardwoods grace much of the 4000 square foot main level. The home is fitted with expansive windows creating beautiful vistas and flooding each space with natural light. The large living room and great room are extraordinary spaces, each set with a gas fireplace and a comfortable flow. The two-story great room is further enhanced by a tucked-away wet bar, ceiling-high windows, and access to the beautiful rear patio. The expansive kitchen is a chef's dream - whether preparing a quick weeknight dinner or holiday feast - the integrated Sub-Zero refrigerator, two refrigerator drawers, Wolf gas range, Miele dishwasher, dual islands, and dual sinks will help you prepare with ease. While entertaining is easy here, relaxing is too in the main floor primary suite with its tucked-away location, luxe ensuite bathroom, and dual closets. Further tranquility is available in the private rear yard with pool, patio, and ample green space. The upper level is host to three large bedrooms each with ensuite bathrooms and walk-in closets. A finished lower level provides more fun with a family room, rec room with a full bar, and wine cellar. This extraordinary Carmel home offers a rare combination of generous scale and timeless charm.
