Property Manager is proud to present "Red Tail Hawk"! This home sleeps 6-8 guests.
Beautiful Big Sur location just 13 miles south of Carmel. This upscale home with incredible views is in a remote location, perfect for a retreat where you really want to get away from it all and commune with nature.
Up a steep, bluff-side road to a private drive where neighboring homes are nowhere to be seen but unobstructed ocean views are a highlight. (Please be sure to read the info below about the main house and guest suite on the property.)
This perfect location gives you the best of both worlds: being near all the attractions of the Big Sur coastline while giving you easy access to Carmel and all of its conveniences. Enjoy a birds’-eye view of Garrapata State Park Trails, Rocky Creek Bridge, the Pacific Coast Highway and endless ocean views.
Step into the modern, simply stunning home where large windows take full advantage of the ocean, mountain and valley views. The 5,000 sf home is nestled into a hillside which is part of the Santa Lucia Mountain Range bordering the Pacific Ocean along the Big Sur Coastline. Located up a private road, this secluded retreat is a truly special place, full of serenity.
