Photos: Be Brad Pitt’s new neighbor; rare Carmel home listed for $8.8 million
A property in the picturesque Carmel Highlands coastal community, a popular enclave for celebrities, is for sale for $8.8 million.
Last summer Brad Pitt paid $40 million for a home in the secluded area overlooking the Pacific. Other previous residents include Betty White, Little Mermaid composer Alan Silvestri, and others. A nearby home was also featured in the Sharon Stone thriller Basic Instinct.
The previous owner of the midcentury modern- style home was the late U.S. Postmaster General and former CEO of First Nationwide bank, Anthony Frank. The property has a coveted design built on rocks that extends out over the Pacific. And it is one of few homes in the area that has a stairway that leads to a hidden beach. Today, new buildings are not allowed so close to the water to preserve the area’s natural beauty.
So you can count on panoramic views of dramatic sunsets in the 2,466 square foot home with four bedrooms and three baths. Other special features include a stone fireplace, a hand-carved front door, a built-in bar and a detached guest studio with private entrance.
