LOCATION: Located in the heart of the historic PG Retreat neighborhood, this vintage craftsman-style home is a half block walk to Berwick Park and the Coastal Recreational Trail on the Monterey Bay. A few steps farther will take you to the many amenities available in downtown PG, Lover’s Point, and Cannery Row.
We are a 5-minute walk to vibrant downtown PG, and a 10-minute coastal trail stroll to the Aquarium.
Though close to the action, the home is situated on a quiet and peaceful lane located between the main thoroughfares, adjacent to a breathtaking 100-year-old Moreton Bay Fig tree.
OUR HOME: Built in 1914 & remodeled down to the studs in 1997, our home includes 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a large kitchen & breakfast nook, formal dining room, family room, laundry room, and a home office. The master bedroom (with ensuite bathroom and laundry) and kids’ room are both upstairs, while the guest room (with ensuite bathroom) is downstairs. Upon request, there is a brand new Luonto queen-size sleeper sofa in the office that can be made into a very comfortable bed.
We have everything you will need for your stay, including two gas fireplaces and new stainless-steel Bosch kitchen appliances. Utilities include high speed Wi-Fi, two smart TVs with multiple channel subscriptions, central heating, SimpliSafe alarm & keyless entry system, weekly trash pickup, and tankless water heater.
The exterior boasts a beautiful garden, including an outdoor dining table under coastal oak trees, and a lovely new fire-pit seating area under the stars (just push a button and enjoy a warm fire). The side yard hosts a grass lawn and natural gas BBQ grill under a custom-made pergola. Our private driveway includes a Level-2 electric vehicle charger. If you are bringing an additional car, parking is easy to find along the street.
Have kids? Need a vacation?
While we can't offer you a vacation from your kids, our home is ready for the perfect family getaway. There is enough space to bring the grandparents, so start planning your date nights!
As a family with two young kids, we know how difficult it is to travel. We have you covered.
