Remarks

Location is everything and this home has it all. Embrace the timeless allure of Old Town Monterey just a few blocks from the breathtaking Monterey Bay. This Spanish Colonial Revival style was built in 1944 and is offered for the first time in nearly eighty years. Step into this single level home with generously proportioned rooms where every corner tells a story. You will find hardwood floors throughout most of the house. The living room features pleasing architectural lines with a charming fireplace, and distant views of the Santa Lucia mountains. Continue on to three bedrooms and 1 ½ bathroom, the kitchen with breakfast bar and dining area. A spacious family room allows for indoor/outdoor living overlooking the backyard. You will love the majestic Magnolia, Meyer lemon, tangerine trees and a beautiful Bird of Paradise. The driveway leads to the two-car garage at the rear of the property. The unfinished basement has wonderful workshop and storage possibilities. Near shopping, restaurants, wharf and sandy beaches. Welcome home.
