Lovingly known to neighbors as “The Big House,” 443 Watson St. stands as a centerpiece of Monterey’s historic core. Built at the turn of the 20th century, set on a massive lot, the property combines timeless craftsmanship with extraordinary investment potential. The front residence is a modern Victorian currently divided into a duplex—each unit offering 4 bedrooms and 2 baths, with a separate entrance to the upper level. From the exposed beams and original fireplaces to the charming window seat benches, this home exudes the artistry of its era. With thoughtful vision, it could be restored as a grand single-family estate or maintained as a multi-unit income property. Behind the Victorian, a triplex expands the possibilities, featuring two 2-bedroom/1-bath homes and a 1-bedroom/1-bath lower-level unit. Each back bedroom captures unobstructed views of the Monterey coastline, underscoring the property’s proximity to downtown shopping, dining, and cultural landmarks. The expansive lot holds potential for future division—an extraordinary opportunity for bold visionaries. More than a property, this is a legacy in waiting: a canvas for restoration, innovation, or multi-generational living in one of Monterey’s most celebrated locations. Unlock the potential today.
