In the heart of Carmel By The Sea stands The Sand Castle with a unique personality. Originally built and designed by Italian Architect Gino Bushini he named the property The Hideaway. Rumor has it that there is an interesting story to tell. When local surgeon and Vietnam War Vet Dr. John Baldwin & his wife Jean bought the property, they worked with Carmel Master Builder Doug Mack having a goal to have pieces of Carmel in every corner. Custom doors using recycled wood from a home on Carmel Point, fireplace mantle from a sunken 1800 Navy Ship. An Old Carmel PO Box is nestled by the front door. Custom redwood cabinets, custom copper sinks, Grey cement baths embedded w/ beach stones. You never have to get in the car if you dont want to. Just a short walk to town or the beach. You might never want to leave home. If you love to cook, the kitchen is amazing. Roaring fire in the living room, a glass of wine. Outside is a private patio, deck, fireplace & BBQ. The Sand Castle is Carmel.
