0 Santa Rita 2 SW of 3rd Street

Tucked behind a quaint garden gate, this storybook cottage welcomes you with an irrigated, lush, secluded front yard and a stone-walled path that leads to your own slice of Carmel-by-the-Sea magic. Inside, an open beamed vaulted ceiling and cozy wood-burning fireplace create a warm, open living space perfect for curling up with a good book or glass of wine. With three bedrooms, including an ensuite primary, and two baths, there's room to host friends or carve out a dreamy work-from-home nook. Your EV can recharge under the charming carport, thanks to a 240V NEMA outlet, while you recharge on the sunny south-facing deck or unwind in the fenced private rear patio shaded by sculptural native trees. Just a few short blocks away, explore the delights of the village, nearby Bruno's Market and Carmel Plaza, one-of-a-kind shops and galleries, and renowned restaurants... before strolling down to the powdery white sands of Carmel Beach. This is more than a home, it's a lifestyle, wrapped in charm and nestled in one of the most enchanting corners of the California coast.
