Welcome to The Courtyards of Carmel, a sold-out 55+ active adult community where thoughtful design and everyday convenience come together. This beautifully crafted home offers a zero-step floor plan with wide hallways and open living spaces, designed to make life both comfortable and connected. A large covered front porch sets the tone, inviting you inside to a bright, airy interior filled with natural light from expansive windows. The kitchen is the heart of the home with its oversized center island, stainless steel appliances, abundant cabinetry, and walk-in pantry, while the adjoining dining and living areas open to the private courtyard-perfect for gathering with friends or simply enjoying a quiet morning. The private den offers a great location for an office, library, or room for guests. The primary suite provides direct access to a screened porch and sitting area that flows seamlessly to the open patio, creating a peaceful indoor-outdoor sanctuary. A second bedroom with its own full bath, plus a powder room off the garage and mudroom, add both comfort and practicality. Living in The Courtyards of Carmel means more than a home-it's a lifestyle. Stay active and engaged with amenities including a clubhouse, pool, pickleball and bocce courts, and a state-of-the-art fitness center. Step outside the community to explore the nearby Hagan-Burke and Monon Trails, or enjoy a short bike ride or drive to the Carmel Arts & Design District for dining, shopping, and entertainment. This home offers a rare opportunity to enjoy modern design, low-maintenance living, and a vibrant community atmosphere in one of Carmel's most desirable settings.
