About This Property

Offered for the first time in generations, the affectionately named "The Little House" is a classic Carmel Cottage in a secluded yet accessible slice of town. The charming home sits mere steps from Jane Powers Walkway, which provides direct access to the white sands of Carmel Beach. Shops, restaurants, galleries, and all the bustle of downtown is a few short blocks away, although it does not feel like it -- Palou is well-hidden and rarely frequented, as most people don't even know it exists. Making the most of its exceptional location, the charming cottage uses a simple and effective layout that includes two bedrooms, one bath, a cozy living room with a fireplace, and a generous deck. An ample front patio adorned with brick and Carmel Stone offers the perfect space to maintain a small garden, sip morning coffee, or dine al fresco. A sizeable backyard and storage shed complete the property. "The Little House" presents an unmissable opportunity to buy into the Carmel lifestyle at a location that offers all the most coveted benefits of the Golden Rectangle, at a fraction of the price.
