4069 Twin Briar Cottage

Property Manager is proud to present "Twin Briar Cottage"! This gorgeous fairy-tale cottage with a private guest house sleeps up to 5 guests. Set behind a lush fenced garden in northwest Carmel, Twin Briar Cottage is a storybook retreat designed for longer stays on the Monterey Peninsula. The home combines classic Carmel charm with the comfort of a real residence: a main cottage, a detached guest cottage, three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a private office, a fireplace, outdoor dining, and peaceful garden spaces. The main house offers a warm, inviting living room with a gas fireplace, a comfortable dining area, a well-equipped kitchen, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a dedicated office for remote work or quiet reading. The detached guest cottage adds rare flexibility, with its own queen bedroom, private bathroom, and Smart TV — ideal for grandparents, visiting family, an adult child, a second couple, or anyone who wants a little extra privacy. Outside, the fully fenced garden is one of the home’s defining features. Roses, mature landscaping, outdoor seating, and a BBQ area create the feeling of a private Carmel hideaway — perfect for morning coffee, relaxed dinners, or unwinding after a day at the beach, in Pebble Beach, Carmel Valley, Monterey, or Big Sur. Twin Briar Cottage is especially well suited for monthly Carmel stays, small families, couples traveling with guests, remote workers, and anyone looking for a quiet, character-filled home base rather than a generic rental. With off-street parking, Wi-Fi, thoughtful furnishings, and professional management, the cottage offers both charm and ease for an extended stay. Wonderful northwest Carmel location with easy access to downtown Carmel-by-the-Sea and Highway One so you can reach all the local attractions and nearby towns including Monterey, Pebble Beach® and Pacific Grove. Perfect for day-tripping to see the redwoods and stunning coastline of Big Sur or heading east 12 miles to Carmel Valley Village and exploring Monterey County wine country. Nature-lovers will enjoy Exploring Point Lobos State Reserve, miles of sandy beaches and local hiking/walking trails.
