The Pebble Beach Lifestyle ~ What’s Not to Like?

Memories of “Car Week”  in Pebble Beach

At Carmel Realty Company we take treating our clients well very seriously.  When I first speak with a client, I always tell them to consider me your realtor for life.  I take relationships seriously as does the company I work for.  Enter “Car Week” !  Always a delight for all and a chance to meet new friends and clients who want to learn more about our fabulous Monterey Peninsula.

This year Carmel Realty Company hosted  two fabulous parties at oceanfront properties where guests could experience how amazing the lifestyle can be in this idyllic community.

Our Thursday night party during “Car Week” was held at Villa Eden del Mar on 17 Mile Drive, one of our amazing properties for sale.  It was described in 1925 as “A Spanish Palace by the Sea” and has long been considered one of the most renowned homes on the Monterey Coast.  Guests enjoyed Quintessa wine and delicious light bites from Grasing’s, one of Carmel’s finest restaurants.

Guests mingle on the delightful patio drinking wine from Quintessa Estates and delicious bites from Grasing’s restaurant.

How spectacular this was to be able to invite my guests to such a fabulous party!

Although the home was open for all to tour, guests seemed to linger on the back patio where the view of the Pacific Ocean was “to die for”.  The weather was warm ~ everything was just about perfect.

Debbie and Walter, clients from Shreveport, LA,  loved the party and the Pebble Beach lifestyle!  They are looking forward to when they can move here.  I think our party at this breath-taking location convinced anyone who was considering a move or having a second home here to take the steps!

No one had to convince me that night!  I love the Monterey Peninsula lifestyle and still have to pinch myself – after living here 20 years – that I am just where I want to be – and it’s perfect!

Since parking was limited, Carmel Realty had arranged with Rolls Royce to have their amazing cars available  to shuttle guests to their cars parked at another listing close by.  Walter being a car buff loved checking out the Rolls. Thank you Rolls Royce!

I kind of liked checking out the fantastic cars, also.                                     But I do prefer the convertible!

Thinking about having a place here?  Call me and let’s chat.  We have homes in all price ranges and I would love to help you  find your dream home or getaway –  just perfect for you!

and its beautiful rose garden

As I realtor with 30+ years real estate sales experience  I’ve enjoyed viewing and  representing many homes in Carmel and Pebble Beach.  Most all of them I can appreciate as beautiful homes  – but not all of them would be the home I would choose to live in and call “my home”.

Gracious and homey living room. Listed by Alain Pinel Realtors

Today I’m excited about holding this stunning home open for Open House.  For me, it’s perfect and maybe it will be for you too!  Built in 1936 it has all the old world charm as well as modern conveniences.

It’s the perfect entertaining home with gracious rooms and high end finishes – but very homey at the same time.
