About This Home
As of August 2025The delicate scent of succulent lemons fills the twilight air in the backyard of this immaculate single-level residence in the desirable Mission Park area of Salinas. Stroll beneath hanging lights across a paved patio connecting the main house to a detached ADU. With a beautifully finished interior, this space is an ideal guest bedroom or a simple place of private refuge where you can rest, read, study, or create. There are approved plans to convert the ADU into a living unit you can use as a rental. Each room of the home is a study in urbane sophistication, with vibrant pink bougainvillea peeking in through French windows adding a delightful hint of unexpected whimsy. Step across deliciously soft, premium carpeting in three generous bedrooms and a front living room with a wood-burning fireplace. Warming yourself by the flickering flames, gaze out through three picture windows to appreciate your prime position within this neighborhood that is just a few blocks from thriving restaurants, shops, and conveniences of all kinds. You will adore the updated kitchen with its profusion of chic cabinetry and stainless-steel appliances, including a five-burner gas range. Its layout lends itself naturally to entertaining friends in the informal living area. This is one you simply must see!
