01The Residence
A cliffside commission by Faulkner Architects, Kestrel Cliff is a 6,100-square-foot composition in Cor-Ten steel, board-formed concrete, and full-height glass — cantilevered over a private cove south of Carmel. The plan is a single-line bar facing west, with every primary room oriented to the surf. A 50-foot lap pool runs the length of the seaward terrace; an Ipe deck reads as the prow of a ship. Interiors are restrained: lime-plaster walls, white-oak floors, a fireplace of single-poured concrete. A detached studio with a north-light darkroom completes the property.

03The Setting

Carmel Highlands
