0 Ocean Avenue

Ocean House is a one story, wooden framed historic Tudor, English cottage constructed by Carmels builder of dreams, Hugh Comstock in 1928. This is the third of five cottages Comstock designed and built for an eastern investor, W.O. Swain. Swain hired Comstock to build this group of cottages together, with a feeling of spaciousness about them as in an English city garden park. English characteristics abound with the small wall dormer, steeply pitched hipped roof line, multi-pane wooden windows and an ivy covered fence providing additional privacy in the backyard. Character abounds in this charmer with Carmel stone entry & fireplace, original hardwood flooring, vertically planked wooden front door. Simple kitchen with all the modern conveniences. Drought resistant landscaping abounds on the property including a couple ancient, twisted oak trees. This is the perfect weekend beach cottage! The property sits back from Ocean Ave & is a very short walk to downtown Carmel by the Sea.
