Sanctuary Vacation Rentals is proud to present "Stone’s Throw"! Sleeps up to 7 guests.
As featured in “Carmel’s Fairy Tale Cottages” by Mike Barton, Stone’s Throw is a historic English Tudor cottage build in 1925 and fully renovated and expanded in 2005 by award-winning architect David Martin.
Surrounded by serene gardens and tucked away in a quiet neighborhood of Carmel-by-the-Sea, Stone’s Throw offers exquisitely updated amenities as well as the perfect location that’s just a short 10 minute walk to the beach and to Ocean Avenue’s restaurants and shopping. It’s also a 10-minute drive to local attractions like golf and sightseeing in Pebble Beach®, vintage Victorian homes and shopping in Pacific Grove, or to historic Cannery Row and the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Or enjoy a short drive to Big Sur to take in the majestic landscape, hiking and dining.
Guests entering under the vine-covered garden arches will think they’ve stepped into a fairy tale, with beautiful gardens blooming with hydrangea, rhododendron, jasmine and roses, framed by native succulents, Japanese maples and palms. Carmel stone walkways lead to the doorway of the cottage, which is crowned in a traditional English country gabled roof.
Stone’s Throw is 2,009 sf. It has a high-end chef’s kitchen, two Carmel stone gas fireplaces, vaulted ceilings and hand-plastered walls in every room, oak hardwood floors and beautiful historical detailing indoors and out.
Living Spaces Abundant common areas include separate living and family rooms, both with gas fireplaces, as well as a library retreat with games, puzzles and books on local history and nature. The family room has a 55-inch Roku-enabled Smart TV and sofa and leather chairs.
Kitchen and Dining The fully equipped chef’s kitchen has Alder cabinets, Jerusalem limestone countertops, a Sub-Zero refrigerator and wine fridge, Bosch double ovens and a Thermador five-burner gas cooktop. The adjacent dining area has a vintage cottage dining table with seating for eight.
French doors from both the kitchen and dining areas open fully onto the Carmel stone patio, where overhead string lighting, incredible garden landscaping, fountain, a gourmet gas grill and seating for six, make this a perfect place for outdoor dining.
Bedrooms and Bathrooms Bedroom #1 is on the main/upper level and overlooks Pescadero Canyon. Open the French doors of its private balcony and hear the sound of ocean waves. The bedroom has a king bed and an en suite bath with heated floors, jetted tub, walk-in shower and dual sinks and mirrors.
Bedroom #2, with a queen bed, is also on the main level, with a full bathroom with a shower across the hall and has a “peek of the ocean” view and views of the canyon.
Bedroom #3, with a king bed and en suite bathroom, is privately situated on the lower level, with a wood beamed ceiling and its own deck. It has the option of being accessed from inside the house or by its own separate entrance. A twin bed located in an adjacent small bonus room is perfect for a child.
The garage can accommodate one small car and has a 240V Level 2 electric vehicle charger that delivers up to 40A with a 23 foot cable for easy charging even outside the garage. Two cars can park in the driveway.
Well-behaved small dogs are welcome with pre-approval, an additional pet fee and a signed pet addendum. Please note that the yard is not entirely fenced.

Love this house! Very well maintained, comfortable, clean. The location is awesome - close to the beach and a short walk to all the shops. Would definitely stay here again.

We loved our few days at Stone’s Throw. The home is beautiful, warm and comfortable. It was an easy and beautiful walk to town and was an easy downhill walk to the beach. We look forward to returning in the future.

We had a wonderful stay in Carmel. The house was beautiful (100 years old but nicely modernized) and the location was perfect - walking distance to town and to Carmel Beach both less than 10 or 12 minutes. Thoroughly enjoyed the stay,. What a great way to celebrate New Year's Eve & Day and a big birthday.

We enjoyed our stay in Stone's Throw, the location is amazing! A quick 10 minute walk to the beach or downtown. The house does have stairs leading down to one of the bedrooms, which I didn't remember reading in the description or seeing pictures of. Thankfully we found a baby gate at the property that we used to secure from our one year old. The house overall was wonderful, quiet and very comfortable.

What a Gorgeous, well-appointed, well maintained home within walking beaches to the beach as well as downtown Carmel by the Sea. We had plenty of room for the 6 of us to cook and hang out at home when we weren’t out exploring the area. We did have an issue with the master bathroom shower and the management company responded rapidly and handled the problem very professionally. I would highly recommend this property and the Management company.

The home was absolutely beautiful and beds were comfortable. A perfect, short walk from town if you aren’t afraid of walking up a short hill for the last 2 minutes. A lovely stay that we would book again!! My only semi-negative (even putting the word negative in this review feels harsh) was they didn’t seem to bother with our early check in request beyond the generic message sent regarding it. That would’ve been above and beyond but we understand Fridays are busy days for them!! Highly recommend this property- it was a stunning experience from start to finish.
