Description

A hidden gem in Carmel, this redwood home was thoughtfully designed in the mid-1960s by George Beck, a local builder and artist inspired by Frank Lloyd Wrights organic and mid-century modern architecture. Crafted for his own family, the home reflects Usonian ideals with redwood-framed glass doors, a flowing indoor-outdoor layout, and a rare connection to the land. The upper level of about 1,540 sq ft offers two bedrooms, 1.5 baths, a modern kitchen, and a dining room with garden views. Expansive windows artistically frame views of hills and beautiful trees, flooding the home with natural light. Below, a separate entrance leads to a flexible 510 sq ft two-room suite with a full bath, ideal for a home office or guest retreat. Three decks provide space for outdoor living and reflection, with views across the rolling hills of Fish Ranch. Garden paths wind through a tapestry of succulents and seasonal blooms, planted and lovingly tended by the original family. Just minutes from Carmel Beach and the charming boutiques of Carmel-by-the-Sea, this home offers a Big Sur-like sense of escape with the convenience of Carmel living.
