About This Home

As of March 2022

Spindrift, the most iconic oceanfront estate in the Carmel Highlands, is on the market for the first time in nearly fifty years. Seven flat, awe-inspiring acres serve as the backdrop of this 4,300 square foot English manor house designed by Charles Gottschalk and Charles Sumner Greene, which includes six bedrooms, six bathrooms, and various outbuildings. The gated granite entrance welcomes you with a cypress tree-lined driveway. Surrounded by three sides of the Pacific Ocean and protected by stunning cypress groves, the coastal views and privacy are unparalleled. Private hiking trails on two ocean bluffs conclude at the water's edge with access to tidepools and a secluded cove. If you are looking for a once-in-a-generation oceanfront estate, you have found it.
