About This Home
Located on the 500 block of College Drive in the heart of Mission Park, this lovingly restored 1956 charmer offers the rare opportunity to walk to school from kindergarten through college, with Mission Park Elementary, Palma, and Hartnell College all just blocks away. Rarely does a home become available in this sought-after neighborhood. Featuring 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and a beautifully updated yard, the home blends timeless character with thoughtful modern updates. Natural light fills the home through brand-new windows, while recent improvements include fresh interior and exterior paint, updated front and backyard landscaping, new lighting, a tankless water heater, and a whole-house water softener. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, the inviting layout flows seamlessly outdoors to enjoy Salinas mild coastal weather year-round. Enjoy morning coffee in the courtyard, gather with friends beneath the up-lit redwood tree, or unwind on the patio after a long day. The versatile floor plan is ideal for multigenerational living, working from home, or flexible spaces that can evolve over time. Warm, welcoming, and full of original character, this is a home meant to be cherished for generations.
