31475 Highway 1, Carmel, California 93923

Highway 1 – Some coastline you buy this you inherit. Named for the 1860s Azorean whaler whose family settled this ridge, Victorine Ranch is a gated enclave of just five homes on 460 acres of Carmel Highlands coast. Showcasing 100 protected acres of open space California state coastal conservancy. Whitewater Pacific to the west, the Santa Lucia range to the east, and a coastal cypress grove moss-draped and backlit at golden hour framing the ocean off the primary suite. Wrapped by Point Lobos, Garrapata, and permanently protected open space, this setting will never change: Big Sur seclusion, ten minutes from Carmel. The 6, 900 SF residence offers four bedrooms, ocean views from nearly every room, vaulted open beam ceilings, walls of glass, a ground-floor primary, theater, wine cellar, sauna, and guest studio. Stunning as it stands or a rare canvas to elevate; renderings available. At roughly $1, 225/SF, this is irreplaceable protected oceanfront priced below renovated comps, with the upside yours to capture. Land like this doesn’t come back.
