Carmel By The Sea, California
188,000
A charming retail opportunity in the heart of Carmel-by-the-Sea, where the possibilities are almost as endless as the Pacific horizon.

Located on iconic Ocean Avenue in Carmel-by-the-Sea, this beautifully curated boutique offers a rare opportunity to step into one of California’s most coveted retail destinations — and decide what comes next.

Keep the current concept and build on an established brand, loyal following, and thoughtfully curated merchandise mix. Or dream a little bigger and make the space your own. Fashion boutique? Home décor? Art gallery? Jewelry? Gifts? Specialty retail? A completely new concept? This versatile retail opportunity provides the perfect canvas for a creative entrepreneur to bring a fresh vision to one of Carmel’s most charming and celebrated shopping streets.

The existing business has developed a strong identity with an elevated aesthetic, recognizable boutique brands, an active social media presence, and an inviting interior designed to feel more like a lifestyle experience than a traditional shop.

Why This Opportunity Shines
• Iconic Ocean Avenue location in the heart of Carmel-by-the-Sea
• Excellent visibility and strong pedestrian traffic from locals and visitors
• Established retail brand with a loyal customer following
• Beautifully designed, inviting, and professionally merchandised interior
• Active social media presence and established online identity
• Existing relationships with curated boutique vendors
• Turnkey operation for a buyer wishing to continue the current concept
• Or an exciting opportunity to create an entirely new retail experience
• Lease in place through Spring 2027, plus options

There is something special about retail in Carmel — and there is something even more special about having a storefront on Ocean Avenue. The right buyer can walk in, turn the key, and continue what is already working, or take the space in an entirely new direction.

Whether you have always dreamed of owning a boutique in Carmel, are looking for a second location for an established brand, or simply have a retail idea waiting for the right address, this could be the blank canvas you’ve been waiting for.

This opportunity is ideally suited for an owner-operator, entrepreneur, designer, retailer, or creative visionary who sees the potential in a premier Carmel location and wants to make it their own.

Detailed information is available to qualified buyers upon execution of a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA).
