It’s charming, it’s in Carmel, and it’s one of California’s oldest homes. But best of all, it will make you neighbors with Hollywood heartthrob Brad Pitt. Certainly a dream come true for some, this home, dubbed Stonewater, has been listed for nearly $8 million. Designed in 1919, the edifice was the work of impressionist painter John O’Shea, who lived in the house with Elizabeth Bigelow.
The refurbished home is rich with history but modernized with top-notch conveniences. The only things that remain unchanged are the wood paneling and original stone fireplaces that dot the home.
Too good to be altered, the facade reflects early 20th-century Spanish style. Inside, this spacious property features winding stairways, manicured gardens, and tremendous space both indoors and outdoors, along with dramatic views of Wildcat Cove. While natural surroundings are always a plus, it’s the DL James House, Brad Pitt’s Carmel home situated next door, that’s the real draw. According to Mansion Global, Stonewater comprises 3,652 square feet, with four bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms.
The abode includes some very well-designed areas, such as a skylit room that can be used as a library or home office. The kitchen boasts a rustic charm with copper fixtures and accents. The exterior is equally attractive, with multiple patios, terraces, outdoor fireplaces, and a hot tub.
The most alluring aspect of Stonewater’s exterior is the small on-site vineyard. The property also includes a guest house with one bedroom and one bathroom, along with a detached two-car garage and additional space that provides plenty of parking.
