About this home

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.
