Living above Cannery Row
Despite its name, the coastal neighborhood of New Monterey has plenty of history. Located on a hill above Monterey Bay and the waves of the Pacific Ocean, the neighborhood includes Cannery Row, a district made famous in 1945 by John Steinbeck. Once a row of sardine canning factories thriving in the 1940s, Cannery Row has since transformed into a lively street of boutique shopping and upscale restaurants. “You get to be very popular with your family when you live in New Monterey,” says Dean Province of Sotheby’s International Realty, who has nearly four decades of experience in the area. “All of a sudden, relatives you didn’t even know you had will call you up to plan a visit.” While shopping and dining are the area’s main draws, fishing and relaxing on the beach are as popular now as they were back in Steinbeck’s era. Locals and visitors alike visit the John Steinbeck and Cannery Row monuments, paying homage to the past.

Shopping Cannery Row and dining at the Sardine Factory
Cannery Row overlooks the waterfront from New Monterey’s northeast end. High-end art galleries, jewelry and clothing stores do business in this vibrant waterfront area. Diners check out The Sardine Factory, one of the most renowned restaurants in the country, which has served fresh seafood since 1968. Housed in a refurbished building that used to be a mess hall for sardine canners, the restaurant won Wine Spectator’s “Award of Excellence” in 2023. Chart House has white tablecloths and floor to ceiling windows with views of the Pacific and an extensive steak and seafood menu. Wave Street Café has an outdoor patio with umbrella-covered tables. Diners can enjoy the Mediterranean architecture while dining on breakfast and lunch favorites. Trader Joe’s and Safeway both have locations in the neighborhood for convenient grocery shopping.

Relaxing at San Carlos Beach
Residents can bring a picnic and sit on the sand at San Carlos Beach, looking out at Monterey Harbor. McAbee Beach, in the shadows of New Monterey’s restaurants, is a popular spot for kayakers and scuba divers to launch into the harbor. The Monterey Bay Aquarium has been popular since its opening in 1984; it has an open sea exhibit featuring tuna, sea turtles and puffins, and other exhibits highlighting sharks, penguins and a giant octopus. For more wildlife viewing, the Harbor Seal Observation Area is a fun spot to check out the local seals lying on the beaches and rocks around the bay. Away from the water, Oak Newton Park has playground for kids, a dog park and green space for picnics.
San Carlos Beach offers white sands and rich history.

California bungalows in the hills
Pricing in New Monterey depends on location more than the size or age of the home. “You want to be on the upside of a hill because those homes will have a view of the ocean from the living spaces,” says Gianna Malfitano of Compass Realty, who has five years of experience in Monterey. Updated ranch-style houses and California bungalows, depending on views, cost between $875,000 and $1.5 million. Larger, two-story houses with back porches and ocean views cost between $1.4 million and $1.9 million, while renovation-ready ranch-style houses cost between $770,000 and $870,000. “A first-time buyer can still get an original 1950s house for a decent price and put some sweat equity into it,” says Province. The prices are more affordable than much of the peninsula. Homes near Cannery Row will deal with noise from the traffic, but houses further inland sit on quiet residential streets shaded by mature trees with private driveways and garages for parking. Waterfront condos and townhouses near Cannery Row sell for $1.9 million to $2.7 million.
