Jones House"! This home sleeps up to 4 guests. Designed by and named for a noted architect who once worked with Frank Lloyd Wright, this warm mid-century home evokes all the feelings of old Carmel but has all the modern conveniences one would expect from any well-equipped vacation home today. Built in the early 1940's the Robert R. Jones House is an example of the modernist style that influenced so much of his work. The home is still owned and cared for by the family of Mr. Jones who are artists in their own right - well-lit paintings and photographs adorn the home's walls adding to its unique character. Located on the north side of Carmel, bordering Pescadero Canyon, guests will feel like they are just out of the fray and bustling traffic of downtown, but will be within just a few minutes from downtown Carmel-by-the-Sea, not to mention a short drive to any Monterey Peninsula location like the Monterey Bay Aquarium, Cannery Row, numerous golfing options and a bevvy of hiking trails and parks from which to choose. Guests will be delighted by the lush, well-cared for front garden which is an object of pride and joy of the homeowners. Upon entering the gate from the driveway, visitors pass through this feast for the eyes which is also on full display from inside the home. Floor to ceiling windows in the living room are perfectly positioned to bring the outdoors in. Living Spaces The 1,278 sf single-level home has a simple, pleasant layout. The carpeted living room has a corner sofa and comfortable barrel chairs in a grouping perfect for conversations, games and relaxing; the flat screen Smart TV is here as well as a decorative, candle-lit fireplace. Nearby, a small desk and office chair are situated directly in front of a large bank of windows - if you aren't careful, you may get distracted by the beautiful garden view. A dining table and credenza are on the other side of the living space closer to the kitchen. Kitchen Don't be concerned for an instant that a mid-century kitchen like this one might not have all the bells and whistles you are accustomed to. All the basics including a dishwasher are present, and an abundance of light washes over the large counter-tops, making it a particularly cheerful place to prepare meals. The fully-equipped kitchen has smaller appliances like the ever essential drip coffee maker and even a Keurig single cup option. The laundry center is conveniently located in the kitchen as well. Bedrooms and Bathrooms Bedroom #1 has a queen bed and an en suite bathroom with a shower over tub. Bedroom #2 has a queen bed. The hallway bathroom has a shower over tub. Outdoors The back patio has a table and chairs for outdoor dining and overlooks a verdant landscape. The lot backs up to Pescadero Canyon and though there are neighbors on each side, there are no homes directly behind, making this a quiet, peaceful space. Off street parking for one vehicle is available in the driveway; another car may park in front of the home next to the street. The garage is not available for guest use. The home does not typically welcome pets at this time but if you have a particularly well-behaved small dog, ask our Reservations Agents about the possibility of bringing your buddy along. 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.

The location was prefect for visiting local points of interest as well as walking into Carmel (about 1 mile), just be aware it is a steep grade on the way back so wear walking shoes.The Robert R Jones home was a delight to stay for the long weekend and we enjoyed sitting outside and soaking in the birdsong and lush gardens. There were four in our group and was the perfect size for us and we found everything we needed; beds were comfortable and kitchen is stocked for any cooking you may be doing.Two things we would have enjoyed would be a gas fireplace table outside, even during the day its a bit cool and we wouldve enjoyed it, and the bedroom and bathroom doors are in need of a little tlc as they are quite noisy to open and close. ##### MaryLyn M. ### 10/10 Excellent #### David C. Jul 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Robert Jones House There is Never anything bad about staying in Carmel. The house is old but well kept. You need to know the second bedroom is small with a twin bed so it is very “tight for two people. The curtains in the bedrooms need upgrading. And they really should fix the two large doors that open on the front patio ##### David C.

Starting with Frank Lloyd Wright inspired design and a delightful front garden. Mornings we were serenaded by woodpeckers and other birds in the garden. The back had a sweeping view of costal trees and the house made the most of its garden and forest views. Furnishings and beds were comfortable and the place very clean. It is a bit of a walk to downtown Carmel, sightseeing the adorable homes of Carmel were why we stayed there. Sanctuary Vacations made everything easy. We would stay here again. ##### Liz C.

Apr 1, 2025 #### Beautiful home in Carmel / Monterey 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 wonderful stay in Carmel. The home was well-maintained, and the gardens were beautiful. The house is comfortable, with two bedrooms and bathrooms, a well-equipped kitchen, and a spacious living area. The kitchen appointments, including adequate cooking vessels and dishes, were really nice, as many rentals tend to err on the side of not providing enough. I would recommend this place and would stay here again.One note that I shared with the property manager relates to the exterior lighting. The neighbors are quite strict about not having lights on, which makes it difficult when you return home in the evening and limits the use of the exterior space once it gets dark. The documents state that you can have the lights on until 9 PM, but the neighbor spoke to us almost immediately after we arrived about not turning the lights on at all. ##### Danielle M.

The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This property is on a quiet street with lush landscaped front & back yard areas. Home is cozy and charming. Kitchen and baths are dated but very well equipped. No complaints. Brandon @ Sanctuary even brought us all new bed pillows when we mentioned they were too soft!! The best service and attention from this company. Easy walk to town down Camino Del Monte to Junipero (takes you right to Vesuvio restaurant, park, Brunos deli etc).Carmel beach is the best! Will definitely return. ##### Marilyn F. ### 8/10 Good #### Sandy S. Apr 4, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy ##### Sandy S.
