This is a rare find - a nearly new Carmel, beautifully situated on an incredible south facing lot with sweeping views of the vineyard, hills and valleys. This highly-sought after model almost never comes on the market, especially with a full casita and kitchenette. And, to top it off, it’s only 1 1/2 years old - without the wait! The oversized lot features an expansive backyard, which has been masterfully designed to include a cozy fire pit, grassy dog run, a private vineyard, raised garden beds and a regulation grass court for lawn games - how fun is that! All the work of purchasing a new home (landscaping, window treatments, etc.) has been completed - all you have to do is move in! At 3,005 sq. ft., space and designer upgrades are abundant. This modern farmhouse home features a great room and dining area with two rolling walls of glass, a gathering space with fireplace, and a gorgeous state-of-the-art kitchen with wood flooring, rich cabinetry, quartz waterfall island, stunning pendant lighting, sleek tile backsplash, GE Profile stainless appliances, including a stainless hood over a 5-burner gas cooktop, beverage fridge, double wall oven, and a fridge with a Keurig brewing system. Adjacent, you’ll find the spacious Smart Space/laundry and a walk-in pantry. Entertaining couldn’t be easier, just slide open the walls of glass for a seamless indoor/outdoor space - all while taking in the incredible view. Start with wine tasting and tapas around the kitchen island, dinner in the dining area, and cap off the evening with competitive lawn games and dessert around the fire pit - this is Trilogy living at its best. When it’s time to retire for the night, head toward your master suite, a true oasis - the spacious bedroom is bright and airy with access to the covered patio. The spa bath is a luxurious sanctuary with a Roman tub, tiled shower with seamless glass enclosure, dual sinks with vanity, linen storage and a spacious walk-in closet. When friends and family stay over there’s a guest room with en-suite bath, and a full casita with sitting area, kitchenette with fridge, microwave and sink, a spacious bedroom with en-suite bath - all with the same attention to detail as the rest of the house. Add to this, a powder room, den with fireplace, solar, air-conditioning, and 2-car garage with upper storage. Best of all, this spectacular better-than-new home is located in Trilogy with award-winning Adelina’s Bistro, Sandalwood Spa, two golf courses, and so much more.
