Do you remember this ode to summertime? What memories come up for you? Please share!

For me it was heading to the beach, not a care in the world, feeling the warm sun on my face and the sand between my toes.

Wait, I can still do that now! Yea!

Whatever your summer wishes and dreams are I hope you are on your way to making them come true.

Nestled in a hidden garden in the picturesque village of Carmel-by-the-Sea, this charming two bedroom, one bath English cottage is situated just steps to downtown, restaurants, and shopping. Lovingly remodeled it boasts a recently updated kitchen perfect for cooking and enjoying a good meal with a big farm sink, porcelain counters, gas range, Saltillo tile floor, inviting dining area and peek of the ocean! The renovated bathroom is a dream with spacious shower, radiant heated floors, towel warmer and marble topped cabinet. Delight in the Carmel stone fireplace with rustic mantle in the living room. In the adjacent sunroom you’ll enjoy reading a good book and gazing out at the lush gardens filled with whimsical bird houses, thus the name “The Bird House”.  Hardwood floors, extra storage in the attic with a pull down ladder, laundry and one-car garage adds up to making this the quintessential Carmel cottage.

It’s happening this weekend in Carmel-by-the-Sea, the first annual Alain Pinel Realtors Carmel Canine Cottages Competition!  This event will benefit the SPCA with a silent auction of uniquely designed canine cottages.  Local architects and designers and builders have teamed up and created some amazing “canine cottages” or as some people call them – doghouses.  But these are no ordinary doghouses!  We have one that is a “colonial” built by Bakker Construction, a “contemporary” designed by Sterling-Huddelston and built by Carrol & Strong Builders, and if that isn’t enough a “castle” — Yes, I said a castle, by Jeff Crockett Building & Design and J. Stepanek Construction.  And, of course, the really discerning pooch will demand a “Green/Smart Home” so we have one of those too thanks to Jeselnick Architect and Hare Construction!  And last but not least, being in Carmel we had to throw in a “Tudor”so Helen Okada and Jim Yates Construction created a “Tudor” for the event.

Many thanks to all our architects, designers and builders!contractors

To bring one of these fabulous Canine Cottages home for your beloved pet, join us in a silent auction or just come and see these amazing structures at Alain Pinel Realtors on Junipero between 5th & 6th (across from Bruno’s) August 13th – 16th.  All funds collected from the silent auction will go to the SPCA and there is no charge to view.  As many of you know, the SPCA in addition to their usual good work is very busy saving all kinds of animals that have been displaced by the Soberanes fire.  They need our support now more than ever!

Every event needs a fantastic finale so be sure to come to the reception on Tuesday, August 16th from 4:00-7:00pm after viewing the cars at Concours On the Avenue in Carmel.  Entry tickets to the event can be purchased for $50 at Alain Pinel Realtors or online.  All funds collected will go to the SPCA.  On Tuesday the SPCA will have some wonderful doggies in front of Alain Pinel Realtors that are looking for a loving home so if you’re looking for a furry friend, we can help!
