26263 Scenic Road, Carmel

Living Room   Kitchen   Master

When I toured 26263 Scenic in Carmel on Tuesday I knew instantly that this one would be my property pick of the week. The location is unrivaled, the view is unbeatable and the home, although dated, has fantastic bones and a sleek Big Sur vibe. The home has been in the same family since it was built in 1968, but has been well maintained and updated over the years. With 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, there are big ocean views from Point Lobos in Carmel to Pescadero Point in Pebble Beach. The main house features an attractive wood interior and there is also an updated detached bedroom and bathroom downstairs. This home would easily lend itself to a clean, contemporary remodel and I highly recommend any buyer looking for front line Scenic Avenue to tour this special property.

It was the quintessential COVID sale.

I had been referred to potential buyers who were relocating to Carmel from Colorado. They were the type of buyers that could be successful in the crazy days of COVID. Decisive, ready and able. It was March, 2021 and a gorgeous four bedroom home on one of my favorite streets in Carmel Valley had just hit the market.
