About this property
Charming vacation home near the ocean. Private and gated.
Private and gated cozy family-oriented vacation home outside of Monterrey. Enjoy a comfortable stay in a pet-free/smoke-free mid-century/modern home.
Enjoy your food in the outdoor living space, energize and relax in the sunken tub while sipping a glass of local wine then step out to read a book from a vast selection in the library room.
Plenty of room to spread out in the property including 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, please note that all bedrooms and bathrooms are on the 2nd floor and the master bathroom does not have a shower head.
No need for A/C @ Sumner time, for winter's months' central heat will keep you warm and comfortable while watching big-screen television in the family room.
The vacation home is situated in Marina (not ocean view or beachfront) just a 20-minute drive Southbound brings you to the historical Monterey Cannery row, Fisherman's Wharf, Monterey Bay Aquarium, Pebble Beach, the scenic 17-mile drive, the beautiful city of Carmel with its many specialty shops, restaurants, art galleries, its historical Carmel mission and the famous Carmel beach. Take a short drive to the north to enjoy the city of Santa Cruz with its beach Boardwalk and renovated downtown, the Redwood Forest and state parks. A few more miles to the north to visit the Silicon Valley and then move forward to San Francisco to enjoy all the beauty that this cosmopolitan city has to offer.
A vacation you and your family will remember forever.
