Bird Bend - 37923 Palo Colorado Road

Designed by renowned architect, Mark Mills, and enjoyed as the family’s personal weekend getaway home, this captivating property exudes Mills’ signature style with intricate details and careful consideration of every inch. A student of Frank Lloyd Wright, Mark Mills worked to uniquely blend structural principles and organic forms to highlight the natural beauty surrounding his designs. Bird Bend is no exception, with over 2.5 acres of gorgeous coastal California terrain, including mature oaks, redwoods, a meadow, and mountain views surrounding the two structures. The main house consists of a kitchen, living room, bedroom, and full bathroom, all thoughtfully laid out underneath beautiful exposed beams and centered around a custom fireplace. Warm sunlight fills the spaces through a large central skylight and windows wrapping the entire house. The guest house includes additional living space/rooms to host friends and family for a “Big Sur” getaway close to The Peninsula. With world-class dining destination, Rocky Point, just down the road and a bit further to downtown Carmel or across Bixby Bridge into Big Sur, this Carmel getaway is only missing its new owners to come and appreciate the calm, inspiring environment it furnishes.
