Tucked into one of Monterey's most coveted pockets, this custom-built 1928 bungalow was designed as a true hideaway the kind of place that feels like it escaped from the cottaged lanes of Carmel-by-the-Sea and quietly made itself at home within walking distance of downtown Monterey. Step inside to soaring vaulted wood ceilings, warm and beautifully crafted. The living room is anchored by a gas fireplace flanked by custom built-ins. Every detail carefully considered, years of loving maintenance show in every corner. Nothing mass-produced; everything made to last and to truly feel like home. The bathroom is a destination unto itself: a one-of-a-kind space that feels more like a private spa than a residential bath. The yard is a true private oasis lush, usable, enclosed, and entirely your own. Morning coffee, an afternoon with a book, or entertaining under the evening sky: the garden delivers without pretense. Walk to town, to restaurants, to the waterfront, to the farmers market. Return home to complete quiet. 764 sq ft of character on a 3,434 sq ft lot. A rare hideaway, lovingly kept.
