Hi, I’m Marc! I’m an author, photographer, and consultant who finds endless inspiration in the beauty of Carmel-by-the-Sea. When I’m not working on creative projects, you’ll find me walking daily through Carmel with my beautiful Golden Retriever, soaking in the coastal air and the town’s artistic charm.

I love sharing my home with guests who appreciate art, nature, and peaceful retreats, and I take pride in offering a space that feels both inspiring and welcoming. Whether you're here for relaxation, creative work, or an extended getaway, I hope you’ll find as much joy in this home and town as I do.

Let me know if you have any questions—I’m happy to help make your stay unforgettable!

Why they chose this property

Carmel-by-the-Sea is truly one of the most magical places in California—a town filled with artistic history, natural beauty, and a peaceful coastal charm unlike anywhere else. As an author and photographer, I was drawn to its inspiring landscapes, storybook cottages, and creative spirit.

I love that this home is tucked away on a serene, oak-studded lot, offering privacy and breathtaking views of Carmel Valley and the historic Carmel Mission, yet it’s still within walking distance to the beach and downtown. It’s the perfect balance of seclusion and accessibility, allowing you to experience everything Carmel has to offer—from world-class art galleries and cozy cafés to scenic coastal walks and nearby nature escapes like Big Sur.

Set on a large, oak-studded lot, the property offers sweeping views of lower Carmel Valley and the historic Carmel Mission, plus a peekaboo glimpse of the ocean. Whether you're relaxing on one of the two scenic verandas, enjoying a morning coffee surrounded by nature, or unwinding by the fireplace with a classic vinyl record, this home invites you to slow down and immerse yourself in the beauty of Carmel.

A few things that set this property apart:

Private & Spacious Retreat – Tucked away on a quiet hillside, yet within walking distance to the beach and downtown Carmel.
