Remarks

La Puesta--"The Spot"-- is an iconic oceanfront property overlooking miles of coastline known for its picturesque view of Rocky Creek bridge and the gorgeous beach below. This is an opportunity to own a rare and beloved property that has only been offered for sale once in the last 100-plus years. Charming mid-century home was hand built in 1960 and lovingly maintained and updated over the last several years. Huge panoramic views of the infinite ocean and coastline both directions. Property extends to the high water mark at the beach below and includes plenty of room for expansion on the level house site. Words cannot begin to describe the experience of living in this special place. Relax, create, rejuvenate, rejoice--all of that happens right here. And all just 8 miles south of Carmel.
