Welcome to Appleton Estate, a hidden gem that's been cherished by one family since 1960. Originally one of nine lots for sale, Mick Appleton chose this "Crown Jewel" for its unmatched beauty and tranquility. Tucked away from the street, this private oasis invites you to slow down and enjoy life's simple pleasures. The single-level ranch-style home features four bedrooms and three bathrooms, perfectly positioned at the back of the property to take in the views of the homestead. The pool house, now a cozy guest retreat, is ideal for hosting family and friends. Whether you're taking a refreshing dip in the pool, playing a round of tennis, or simply picking apples, recreation is at your fingertips. Enjoy the peaceful sounds of the seasonal creek from the wraparound deck, or unwind by one of the three water features on the sun-dappled 1.4-acre parcel. Conveniently located 2 minutes from the gates of Carmel Valley Ranch, Mid Valley Shopping Center, and only 9 miles from the breathtaking Carmel Beach, Appleton Estate offers the perfect blend of seclusion and accessibility.
