Just 25 minutes south of Carmel, this private multi-structure family compound is nestled within a forest cathedral of Big Sur redwoods. Designed and built by Studio Carver Architects, this contemporary three-story residence blends seamlessly with its natural surroundings. The second floor living area, and third floor primary suite + deck offer ocean views, with access to a living rooftop. The main home (2,433sqft) features three bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths, an office, and a large family room or art studio. A separate one-bedroom, one-bath guesthouse (263sqft) is just up the path, altogether creating a tranquil retreat that feels worlds away from the demands of everyday life. Above the oversized three-car garage (892sqft) sits an open-concept office, or art/yoga studio (1,048sqft). High ceilings, and natural light make an inspiring space for work or creative pursuits. Sweeping mountain and ocean views, mature fruit trees, manicured lawn and landscaping, and a private/shared natural spring create an exceptional indoor-outdoor Big Sur lifestyle. A rare combination of architectural distinction, generous living space, peace and quiet, starry skies, and serene beauty, this Palo Colorado Canyon property represents a one-of-a-kind opportunity to own your own mountain sanctuary.
