Property Description

When you make your home in Old Monterey, you become part of a beloved heritage. The homes that overlook Monterey Bay from their hillside perch above Alvarado Street are intrinsic to the collective character of the entire community, offering proximity to beaches, restaurants, and the Monterey Bay Coastal Recreation Trail. Caringly crafted in 2000, here is a newer home in a time-honored neighborhood, offering contemporary comforts amid a backdrop rich in history. Sitting on a lot that connects two streets, it offers generous outdoor spaces, each beautifully private and quiet. Lose yourself in daydreams as squirrels play in the branches of mature oak trees. Inside, an open kitchen with a Viking oven and range adjoins a sitting room where sunlight pours through tall windows. Read a book in its glow, pausing occasionally to notice the calm warmth of this space and its immaculate details: the crown molding, the rich hardwood flooring, the buttery smooth built-ins. The second story dazzles, with ocean views from nearly every room. See if you can hold your gasp when you behold the staggering Pacific panorama on view in the primary suite. You can imagine what this looks like at night: twinkling city lights curving unmistakably around the black waters as you soak in your own jetted tub.
