About this House

What's unique:Charming cottageNew roofFresh paintUpdated plumbing and appliancesHardwood floors
Tucked directly across from Cypress Street Park in the heart of New Monterey, this charming cottage offers the rare combination of character, comfort, and coastal convenience. With two bedrooms and one bath, hardwood floors, fresh paint, updated plumbing and appliances, and a layout that feels wonderfully uncomplicated, its the kind of home that invites you to slow down and stay awhile. And then theres the location. Step outside and the park is right across the street. Wander a few blocks farther and youre strolling along the Monterey Bay, with Cannery Row, the Aquarium, and Pacific Grove all within easy reach. Here, the best of Monterey isnt something you drive toits something you walk to. The important work has already been done: a new roof, updated electrical panel, and completed sewer lateral provide a solid foundation for the next chapter. A private carport, accessed from Lily Street via a shared driveway, adds another layer of everyday convenience. Whether imagined as a full-time home, a weekend retreat, or a place to create something uniquely your own, this is an opportunity to own a piece of New Monterey in one of its most beloved neighborhoods. A cottage. A park across the street. The Monterey Bay just beyond.
