About this property
“Pacific Horizons” hot tub, ocean views, Gateway to Big Sur
Delight your senses on Yankee Point! Breathe the fresh air, listen to the crashing waves of the Pacific, stargaze at night by the fire pit. Relax and unwind in a quiet place surrounded and inspired by nature. Take a short walk from the house to the small private beach and beautiful bluff to take in spectacular sunsets and marine life.
Situated on 1/2 acre, this is an ideal home base to explore the Peninsula. Located 10 minutes from Carmel’s downtown dining & grocery stores, 5 minutes from Point Lobos Nature Preserve, 2 min drive to white sand beaches (see photos) and Garrapatta hiking trails.
After a day of exploring the Peninsula (MB Aquarium, Pebble Beach golf links, wine tasting in Carmel Valley, hiking in Big Sur) return to soak in the hot tub.
Enjoy 3 decks for entertaining or relaxing. Backyard deck has BBQ and outdoor dining table.
Cook’s kitchen with top-of-the-line appliances, Wolf oven, center island with bar stools & ocean view, wine fridge, washer/dryer, generous sized bedrooms with abundant natural light, lovely ocean views or scenic nature views from every window in the house and covered parking in garage.
Excellent Internet connection and layout to work from home with wireless printer and separate work spaces that afford privacy for zoom meetings. Primary bedroom has ocean views and a private balcony overlooking the landscaped garden and ocean beyond.
For nature lovers there is excellent bird watching, migrating whale watching in winter months (from the large dining room table), butterflies, hummingbirds and deer that frequent the area.
Ideal for 4 guests with a Cal King in the Master, two full beds in the second bedroom. There is also a fold out Queen sofa bed in the living room.
"Basic Instinct" , HBO’s “Big LittleLies” and Clint Eastwood’s ‘Play Misty for Me’ were filmed in this stunning cinematic neighborhood. Come see the dramatic crashing waves that are a hallmark of this area.

About the host
Hosted by Margot Thomas
Hi I'm Margot, I'm a Carmel-by-the-Sea native and fell in love with the Carmel Highlands area. The hiking trails of Point Lobos, majestic trees and rugged coastline south to Big Sur is some of the most pristine natural beauty on the planet. I remodeled the home to make it both comfortable and and aesthetic so people can enjoy this truly magical part of the world. I hope you enjoy my home!
