At dusk the solarium glows like a lantern. Its barrel-vaulted glass extends off this single-level home on a quiet cul-de-sac in Upper Seaside. Its light shimmers across a koi pond as steam lifts off the hot tub. A cypress leans in against a violet sky while you and your friends pass hours talking under a curtained gazebo. Some other evening, take a solitary stroll along hardscaped walking paths, breathing in the fresh night air. Back inside, a rock fireplace towers to meet vaulted ceilings in the living room, and a breakfast bar connects this space to a kitchen with white tile counters and a gas range. Around the corner, a formal dining room awaits your next holiday dinner. The primary bedroom has its own fireplace and sliding glass doors that place the solarium three steps from your bed. Take your morning coffee out there before anyone else is awake, and you'll know what it is to feel peace. Outside, the yard is a masterwork of beautiful hardscaping and naturalistic landscaping. A waterfall of stacked stone spills toward a dry creek of river rock. Paths curve between beds of succulents and lavender, past a birdhouse, out to the gazebo. Turf keeps the yard low-maintenance so you can spend more time at the beach minutes away, alongside every other wonder of the Monterey Peninsula.
