About this home
Nestled within Tehama's gated nature-rich hillsides, 53 Marguerite offers rare Carmel luxury: ultra-private, sunlit, expansive, and quietly removed yet minutes from everything, with a Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired Organic Design ethos. Set on 11.77 acres carved from raw hillside, the grounds, originally designed by Bernard Trainor, feature multiple patios, 2 pools, outdoor cooking/dining, large fire pit, 2 fireplaces, and walking paths to an east pergola landing. A 270° view arc captures Carmel Valley sunrises through southwest sunsets. The ~7,000sf compound includes a 4-bedroom main residence, guest house, and 3-car garage. Interiors feature San Ardo stone, Jerusalem limestone floors, Konnen GlasHaus windows, Eggersmann cabinetry, Italian Rimadesio closets, and refined indoor/outdoor flow. Often above the fog line, the home enjoys more sun, fewer foggy days, solar performance, and a comfortable year-round microclimate. Systems include automation, upgraded internet/lighting, solar, 3 Tesla Powerwalls, 4K media room, and advanced water systems. The property benefits from Lloyd's of London surplus-lines homeowners coverage, supported by fire mitigation/hardening. Tehama offers social membership with clubhouse dining, fitness and wellness amenities, and golf membership by invitation.
