About this house rental

Sanctuary Vacation Rentals is proud to present "Serenity in the Woods"! Sleeps up to 6 guests.

A wood-pole-construction home becomes one with the sky and native pine forest in Pebble Beach®, backed by greenbelt in a tranquil setting.

The 3-bedroom, 3-bath cabin-like home designed by architect David Allen Smith has been featured in architectural books, Sunset Magazine, and the L.A. Times, and features floor-to-ceiling south-facing windows and skylights that face the Del Monte forest and allow generous amounts of natural light to flow through the entire house. The Homeowners have chosen to maximize the views by excluding window coverings throughout the home.

Built in 1971, the 2,068-square-foot split-level home is designed to bring the outdoors inside, with decks off the main living area and the primary suite, the perfect spots to enjoy sunsets and starlight. The home incorporates both mid-century modernist styling and a rustic feel with its unique design featuring wood planks and poles.

The home features vaulted ceilings, a wood-burning fireplace, an open floor plan and hardwood floors in the kitchen, dining area and living room, and cozy bedrooms with built-in storage spaces.

Despite feeling away from it all, it’s just a few minutes by car from the best that Pebble Beach® has to offer in dining, shopping, golf and other recreational activities. It’s just 10 minutes by car to downtown Carmel, charming Pacific Grove, or popular attractions such as Cannery Row and the Monterey Bay Aquarium.

The home offers a carport on the street level with a convenient entryway, making it easy to bring in groceries and other items. There is parking for two small vehicles in the carport and additional parking on the street.

Living Spaces
The living room features a TV mounted above the wood-burning fireplace surrounded by comfortable seats, an ideal setting for conversation, board games or reading a good book.

Kitchen and Dining
The galley-style kitchen has a distinct mid-century vibe and offers a Sub-Zero refrigerator, a combination microwave-convection oven, and a four-burner gas cooktop, in addition to custom-made wooden cabinetry, solid surface countertops and a double sink with a pull-out faucet.

An adjacent dining area has seating for five around a wooden table adjacent to the wall of windows that looks out among the trees. A long built-in buffet provides ample space for a bar area or for buffet-style meals. The deck also provides additional space for entertaining or enjoying the view.

Bedrooms and Bathrooms
All the bedrooms also have expansive views of the nearby forest through floor-to-ceiling windows which are not encumbered with window coverings of any kind.

Bedroom #1 is located on the main/lower level and includes a king bed with wooden headboard, a private deck, an en suite bath with shower and built-in storage space.

Bedroom #2, also on the main level, has two extra long twin beds that can, alternatively, become a split king with foam topper as needed and an en suite full bathroom.

Bedroom #3, upstairs, has a queen bed and is next to the full hallway bath which has a combination tub/shower and pedestal sink.

Also upstairs in a lofty mezzanine area is the media room with cozy seating, small library, queen sofa bed, and HDTV. This space cantilevers over the lower living room space and has low, open walls that look down on the rooms below.

A stacked washer-dryer unit is located in a closet on the upper level.
There is also an exterior entrance from the upper level that exits onto the carport area.

Well-behaved dogs are welcome with pre-approval, an additional pet fee and a signed pet addendum.

This vacation home is professionally managed by Sanctuary Vacation Rentals. With over 15 years of property management experience, Sanctuary strives to provide environments that nurture and inspire with all the comforts of home. Each home has beach towels, shower and bath amenities and spa-style robes. Our team is available 7 days a week to assist you. We look forward to hosting you!

We covered a lot of ground on our whirlwind California family vacation, Sausalito, Napa, Yosemite, Carmel/Monterey. The last leg of our journey was spent at the Tree House in the Pebble Beach community, what a spectacular way to finish our vacation. Comfortable, clean, quiets with easy access to all the Monterey Peninsula and South to Big Sur. Last supper enjoyed at Pebble Beach Golf Club overlooking the 18th green a stones throw from the Tree House.

Well appointed, plenty of supplies including paper products, covered parking, welcoming greeting at the gate. Loved the table, large enough to accommodate eating and a jigsaw puzzle.

The house is as pictured and was comfortable for our family of five. The view looking out into the woods was lovely and it was very light and airy inside. The only issue we had was the dining room table was a tall table and the quality of the chairs/bench was not the best. They were loose and rickety which was a concern for my 85 year old mother. Due to the height of the table, we couldn’t swap out chairs, so that presented a problem. Also, the single beds in the downstairs bedroom were VERY creaky, I think due to the quality of the bed frames. Other than that, the house was well stocked and wonderfully located off the 17 mile drive so it was easy heading into Carmel and Monterey. Note: there are no window coverings in the downstairs bedrooms - not a issue for us but something that should be known to guests who prefer dark bedrooms and assured privacy.
