Summary:brWelcome to the Carmel Sea of TranquilitybrbrHere is a special home. Once upon a time, Joan Baez and Bob Dylan gave private concerts for their intimate friends in the downstairs living room. Entranced by profound lyrics and haunting melodies, guest gazed through towering glass windows as the tranquil forest whispered back to them. The same mythical forest will envelop your loved ones in its tranquility and quietude during your stay.brbrThis exclusive residence requires a 30-night minimum staybrbrThe Space:brAt this mid-century modern masterpiece designed by famed architect Marcel Sedletzky, “Carmel Sea of Tranquility” sits in a Sea of Tranquility on 1.3 acres of secluded hillside. It exists in total, beautiful harmony with the oak trees that surround it. In the afternoon, sunlight filters through winding, coiled branches, bespeckling the fallen leaves, the walkways, and the expansive private decks. At night, the trees will appear as shadowy silhouettes in moonlight and, no matter the hour, you’ll hear absolutely nothing except the sensual music of nature – the tiny footfall of a bird, the gentle trickle of rain on crackling leaves, the snap of a twig somewhere in the distance, whistling winds. Otherwise: utter stillness of a kind so rarely experienced in our modern world.brTo envision “Carmel Sea of Tranquility” accurately, one must almost picture a glass house. To describe only its “floor-to-ceiling windows” seems entirely inadequate in light of the fact that the windows – multiple tempered windows comprising numerous walls – really stretch from the floor of the downstairs level all the way up to the pitched redwood ceiling of the main level. Naturally, the light here is exquisite.brStanding in the kitchen – an open space with light wood cabinetry, white countertops, and stainless-steel appliances – you’ll be treated to views of the wooded canyon. Enjoying a meal at the dining room table, you’ll glimpse birds playing in the trees overhead. And downstairs, gathered around a custom fireplace in the same post-adobe style living room where, decades ago, two legends found peace and solace in the company of their friends, you’ll make your own new memories.brSlide open the glass door and step onto a wraparound deck – one of several gorgeous decks at “Carmel Sea of Tranquility” – and experience the forest as one might experience the cinema. This deck has a small label on it that reads, “Meditation Spot.” Indeed, it is clear that this home was built as a place of rest and of reverence – a place of deep connection to nature, and to each other. It’s modern, yet intensely earthy.brSedletzky himself built the hand-sewn redwood walls that feature in most rooms of “Carmel Sea of Tranquility.” On the main level, find three (3) relaxing bedrooms and two (2) full bathrooms, one of which has a stone shower. The downstairs living room, accessed by cantilevered floating stairs, is almost entirely visible from the main level, enhancing the grandeur of the windows – and the views.brIf you can bear to tear yourself away from this brilliant masterwork of a home, you’ll find that, despite the sense of welcome remoteness you feel at “Carmel Sea of Tranquility,” you’re only minutes away from the conveniences of Carmel Rancho, the charms of downtown Carmel-by-the-Sea, and the Pacific Ocean. Easily access the wineries in Carmel Valley, the scenic hiking trails in Big Sur, or the iconic landmarks that line 17-Mile Drive in Pebble Beach.brbrGuest Access:brWe're sorry, you may not bring your adorable pets to this home. This includes service animals as the owners are highly allergic to animals. Anyone found bringing animals into the home will incur an additional $10,000 fee for the stringent cleaning required to make the home habitable again for the property owners.brbrThe Neighborhood:brCoast Estate invites you to experience the beautiful Monterey Peninsula and California Central Coast. The are is world renown for spectacular coastlines, unique coastal communities, and rich marine life. Coast Estate specializes in Luxury Vacation Rentals in Big Sur, Carmel, Carmel Highlands, Carmel Valley, Pacific Grove, Pebble Beach, Monterey and Seaside. br brThe village of Carmel-by-the-Sea charms visitors with forested streets and the old English inspired architecture of Hugh Comstock that looks as if it would be at home in the pages of a Fairy Tale. Carmel City Beach is famous for its beautiful white-sand, dog-friendly beach and surfing. The performing arts are alive and well, with concerts and plays at the Golden Bough Theatre, Sunset Center and outdoor Forest Theatre. Dare we mention the hundreds of shops, art galleries and restaurants The historic Carmel Mission offers daily tours. Point Lobos State Park, offers miles of hiking trails. It’s rich underwater habitat is often referred to as the crown jewel of the State Park system. br brShould you travel twelve miles inland on Carmel Valley Road, you will arrive at the charming, provincial Carmel Valley Village.

A dozen or so local winery tasting rooms are clustered here within walking distance of each other.
