Description

This property is no longer available to rent or to buy. This description is from June 26, 2022
Nestled in the sunbelt of Monterey and surrounded by mature oaks, you'll appreciate the privacy that this rural setting provides. Features of the home include an ample kitchen with center island, adjacent dining area and open living room with floor-to-ceiling windows with views of the deck and the trees beyond. Three bedrooms, including a primary suite, and two baths complete the one-level main living area. Large workshop and abundant storage on the lower portion of this property offers potential for a Junior ADU. Minutes away from all that Monterey offers. Loved for decades by the same family. Great opportunity to renovate into your special place.

    "This is Old Town Monterey. Spaghetti Hill, settled by Italian fishermen whose founding families ply their trade to this day. The Defense Language Institute above. The small downtown below. The original capital of California. Lots of history and events. Big Sur,Pinnacles, etc. This is Steinbeck country. If you can afford it, it’s great."

    "My daughter lives with her husband and my ex-wife lives in Sonoma near Morton’s pool. I live in Monterey which is a beautiful area but gets crowded all summer (and much of the rest of the year) with tourists for the many events they offer. When I came out to visit, the older houses and natural areas made me decide to commit to moving out here."

    "What is not to love? Friendly neighbors, windy streets excellent for walking, quiet area with little car traffic, forest and bay views and great weather. We love it when a herd of deer amble through our backyard and when the squid fishermen light up the bay at night making a spectacular fluorescent view from the house. Only in Monterey!"
