3770 Stone's Throw ~ Walk to the Ocean and Town

Sanctuary Vacation Rentals is proud to present "Stone’s Throw"! Sleeps up to 7 guests.

As featured in “Carmel’s Fairy Tale Cottages” by Mike Barton, Stone’s Throw is a historic English Tudor cottage build in 1925 and fully renovated and expanded in 2005 by award-winning architect David Martin.

Surrounded by serene gardens and tucked away in a quiet neighborhood of Carmel-by-the-Sea, Stone’s Throw offers exquisitely updated amenities as well as the perfect location that’s just a short 10 minute walk to the beach and to Ocean Avenue’s restaurants and shopping. It’s also a 10-minute drive to local attractions like golf and sightseeing in Pebble Beach®, vintage Victorian homes and shopping in Pacific Grove, or to historic Cannery Row and the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Or enjoy a short drive to Big Sur to take in the majestic landscape, hiking and dining.

Guests entering under the vine-covered garden arches will think they’ve stepped into a fairy tale, with beautiful gardens blooming with hydrangea, rhododendron, jasmine and roses, framed by native succulents, Japanese maples and palms. Carmel stone walkways lead to the doorway of the cottage, which is crowned in a traditional English country gabled roof.

Stone’s Throw is 2,009 sf. It has a high-end chef’s kitchen, two Carmel stone gas fireplaces, vaulted ceilings and hand-plastered walls in every room, oak hardwood floors and beautiful historical detailing indoors and out.

Living Spaces
Abundant common areas include separate living and family rooms, both with gas fireplaces, as well as a library retreat with games, puzzles and books on local history and nature. The family room has a 55-inch Roku-enabled Smart TV and sofa and leather chairs.

Kitchen and Dining
The fully equipped chef’s kitchen has Alder cabinets, Jerusalem limestone countertops, a Sub-Zero refrigerator and wine fridge, Bosch double ovens and a Thermador five-burner gas cooktop. The adjacent dining area has a vintage cottage dining table with seating for eight.

French doors from both the kitchen and dining areas open fully onto the Carmel stone patio, where overhead string lighting, incredible garden landscaping, fountain, a gourmet gas grill and seating for six, make this a perfect place for outdoor dining.

Bedrooms and Bathrooms
Bedroom #1 is on the main/upper level and overlooks Pescadero Canyon. Open the French doors of its private balcony and hear the sound of ocean waves. The bedroom has a king bed and an en suite bath with heated floors, jetted tub, walk-in shower and dual sinks and mirrors.

Bedroom #2, with a queen bed, is also on the main level, with a full bathroom with a shower across the hall and has a “peek of the ocean” view and views of the canyon.

Bedroom #3, with a king bed and en suite bathroom, is privately situated on the lower level, with a wood beamed ceiling and its own deck. It has the option of being accessed from inside the house or by its own separate entrance.
A twin bed located in an adjacent small bonus room is perfect for a child.

The garage can accommodate one small car and has a 240V Level 2 electric vehicle charger that delivers up to 40A with a 23 foot cable for easy charging even outside the garage. Two cars can park in the driveway.

Well-behaved small dogs are welcome with pre-approval, an additional pet fee and a signed pet addendum. Please note that the yard is not entirely fenced.

Amazing stay

Beautiful home with lovely furnishings and decor. Quiet neighborhood and an easy walk to downtown Carmel. We enjoyed the fireplaces, radiant heated floors in the bathroom, comfortable bed, and views of the garden from almost every window. The welcome bottle of wine, cheese, and crackers were a nice touch.

Great Carmel “cottage” near downtown

This is such a charming home. Feels like you are on the edge of the forest but within ten minute walk to center of town and beach. Only complaint was that place wasn’t ready by the 4pm check in time and we had to go away for a couple of hours during covid when no restaurants were open but they gave us a $100 refund to pay for dinner.

Beautiful Home

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The home was exactly as described and pictured on the website. It is in a great location, very quiet (except for the dog across the street that barks all the time!) and it was very clean when we arrived. I found that the van from the rental agency which arrived at a few minutes before 10am on the day of checkout very tacky. I am sure there are more appropriate ways to be certain that the guests are leaving at EXACTLY 10am on check out day.

Dreamy Cottage to Escape to in Carmel By the Sea

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Ever hope and pray that you will find the perfect get-a-way...we did with a Stones Throw in Carmel by the Sea! Perfectly appointed home, with incredible gardens, ample space within the home for party of 5 with warm and cozy interiors and plenty of light during the day, comfortable sleeping arrangements. It’s everything one might want, plus literally a short walk away from downtown. Our only reservation was...our trip wasn’t long enough. We will correct that next time. Thank you Sanctuary Vacations for this extraordinary opportunity.

Magical home!

Stone's Throw is one of the best vacation rental homes we've ever stayed in. The gardens and architecture are magical, a wonderful place to celebrate a special family birthday. The decor and furniture are great and beds very comfortable. The kitchen has absolutely anything you would need to prepare a nice meal.and they have Keurig, drip, and French press coffee makers. It was also nice to discover that the house has a subscription to YouTubeTV, which we discovered when we were frantically figuring out how to watch a Warriors playoff game. The only criticism I have is that their pet policy was incorrect on the VRBO listing, and we ended up needing to get special permission for our two dogs after booking on VRBO and paying a deposit. So if you have dogs, call and get clarification before you book the home. Also, this wasn't clear in the listing, but you can only bring two cars, as the garage is too small for most cars, other than something like a Mini Cooper, and there is no street parking.

We had a great vacation in Carmel

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a lovelt time, thank you all. The location is very convenient for walking into town and the landscaping and gardens are beautiful. The house is nice, clean, and well-supplied. We appreciated the wine, cheese and crackers. We ran out of kitchen trash bags, and the bottom floor bedroom was chilly. Anticipating this, we brought a couple of portable space heaters from home and needed them. The bedroom did have a portable fan in the closet but not heaters.

Daughter’s day of wedding prep

The pictures don’t do justice to this home, and even looking from the street you cannot appreciate how beautiful the home is inside. Simply gorgeous! The upkeep of the home is impeccable. The modern amenities do not take away the originality and cozy cottage feel of the house. The cleanliness was outstanding, beds were very comfortable, and the staff left us a bottle of wine with crackers and cheese with a sweet note, all of which was a nice an enjoyable surprise. In my case, there was a miscommunication issue from the staff with whom I originally made the reservation, but it was promptly escalated to the manager and quickly resolved, so we were able to enjoy the property. We had a wonderful time and even talked about renting it again in the future for a family retreat.
