Property Description
Perfectly positioned in this sought-after Westside neighborhood, this inviting one-level home offers relaxed coastal living just one block from the water. Set on a sunny corner lot with majestic palm and 4 fruit and citrus trees, this property captures the easygoing spirit of the area. Mornings can begin in the garden with glimpses of the sparkling Monterey Bay, and end with dazzling sunsets while walking or surfing the iconic W Cliff coastline. This home reflects the comfort and simplicity of classic Westside living, with tile floors for sandy feet and easy upkeep, a toasty gas insert for cozy evenings, dual-pane windows and slider to enhance comfort and with room to garden and spread out. The kitchen and bath were previously updated, offering functional spaces ready to enjoy now, or personalize over time. Front and back patios provide inviting spots for entertaining, morning coffee, or simply relaxing outdoors. An attached two-car garage offers room for bikes, surfboards, and beach gear. Beyond the home itself, the location is truly exceptional, sitting just minutes away from everyone's favorite Derby Park, New Leaf Market and the popular Swift Street Courtyard, wineries, brew pubs, coffee shops, eateries, and locally owned boutiques. Make it yours, just in time for summer fun.
