Lilacs & Laughter: A Cottage For Sale in Carmel-by-the-Sea
At first glance, this cottage in Carmel, California, looks like it could be one of Hugh Comstock’s Fairytale Cottages, so I was surprised to learn that it’s much newer, built in 1992. Comstock was building his charming little houses, with names like Hansel and Gretel, back in the 1920s.
This one, called “Lilacs & Laughter,” is on the market for $1.395 million. Let’s look!
The listing says: “In 1902 the tiny oceanside village of C armel-by-the-Sea was founded. Poets and writers, artists and crafters…they all came to this charming town to experience what was then and still is, a lifestyle unmatched the world over.”
The house has “hand-hewn plank floors, open-beamed ceilings, a fantastic location, and unbelievable detailing.”
It needs a little updating. What would you do with this house if you bought it? Or do you like it just the way it is?
