About This Home
As of March 2025Welcome to Casa de 88 Carmel Avenue! The architectural elements are reminiscent of traditional Spanish design. As you approach, you are greeted with a fruitless olive tree (no mess) on your right and a garden fountain on your left. Enter through the wrought-iron gate and up the Spanish tile steps. As you enter the home, notice the beautiful open wood beams in the living room and imagine yourself enjoying a fire while looking out your arched bay window. The flooring was replaced approximately 7 years ago, the extra-large kitchen has newer appliances, a Wolf range with a downdraft ventilation, and quartz countertops. The primary bedroom has a modular closet, built-in blinds in the door leading to the back, and new tile in the upgraded en-suite bathroom. The entire home has been re-plumbed, as well as all new electrical (all grounded). Indoor laundry room, newer tankless water heater, water softener, 2-car garage, separate garage storage, propane fire pit in the backyard, forced central heat, and extra tiles for the tile roof! Live here and live like you're on vacation!
