About This Home
As of October 2019Nestled in the heart of Pacific Grove in a very desirable location--just a few blocks to downtown PG for dining, shopping, a movie, museum & an easy stroll to Lovers Point & the spectacular Rec Trail & coastline. Aptly named Hearts Delight, this charming bungalow was built by local artist, Lizzie Ames Everett, in 1910 to serve as a studio for her painting & drawing. Sunlight filled, a cozy 1 bedroom/1 bath charmer with an open floor plan feels much larger than measured. The kitchen has been tastefully upgraded with granite counter tops & stainless appliances--a chef's delight-- an adjacent dining area for at least 6+. Note the custom stained glass window (in the updated bathroom) glowing with jewel-like colors. A queen-sized bed easily fits in the tranquil bedroom. Functional, small reading/or media room with skylight & a private, tranquil porch for morning coffee. A great weekend getaway or year-round residence for those who want to downsize.
