artist, this unique redwood Arts and Crafts
cottage was the first home built on Valley View
on Carmel Point.
Frank Lloyd Wright House

designed both the house, built in 1948 of Carmel
chalkrock, and the furniture. It sits on the
edge of the beach with the Pacific as a front
yard.
Bay View House
Built in 1938 as a modest beach cottage,
expansions over the years have created a
private, walled and gated residence with a roof
top deck with spectacular 360 degree views of
Carmel and across Carmel Bay to Pebble Beach.
Serenity

landscaped home merges contemporary beach house
style with peaceful indoor and outdoor living
space.

Built in 1936, this carefully remodeled Carmel

Comstock Cottage
When Hugh Comstock applied for a permit in 1927
to build an architect’s studio next to his home
(“Ober’s”), he estimated that the building cost
would be $1,200 ($15,00 today). In the 1930’s,
he added more rooms for his architect’s office
space rather than a living area.
