Description

In 1951, visionary architect Frank Wynkoop designed and built an iconic oceanfront home in Carmel which is recognized worldwide as The Butterfly House. The Butterfly House has been featured in Architectural Digest's AD100, A Century of Style, Architectural Digest's, Most Beautiful Rooms in the World, and Thames and Hudson's 50 Most Iconic Architectural Masterworks in America since 1900. This winged icon, having gone through a massive renovation and restoration by acclaimed Los Angeles based designer Jamie Bush, has been celebrated as a landmark architectural treasure, living art, and as a near perfect example of mid-century architecture. The Butterfly House is just one of five truly oceanfront properties in Carmel and one of the largest, incorporating its own beach and cove. A warm and inviting home with pool, hot tub, fire features, and extraordinary living space. Set amidst an ever-changing display of marine life, The Butterfly's unique and special connection to nature and its beautiful surroundings brings joy, perspective, and happiness to all who experience it.
