Lobos Views
Carmel Highlands
J
ust minutes south of downtown Carmel, along the dramatic Point Lobos coastline, a terroir-driven architectural statement designed by Studio Schicketanz, melds spectacular architecture with modern sustainability. Taking advantage of both the northern ocean view and sunny southern exposure, the architects created cantilevered living spaces designed to maximize the ocean views of this unique property. Soothing, neutral colors and materials welcome the surrounding terrain indoors. The indoor/ outdoor experience of this home is enhanced by the spa quality steam and outdoor showers, sauna, hot tub, and infinity pool overlooking the private cove, and highlights the singlestory waterfall feature. A state-of-the-art kitchen featuring high-design Boffi cabinetry, a Mugnaini wood-fired pizza oven, and elegant reclaimed stonework work together to organically unify the entire home. The architect created generous flat lawn spaces and a floor plan which intentionally captures natural light within the home. An elevator services floors between the 4-car garage and the main level.
