About This Home
As of August 2025Discover this exclusive Monterey Colonial estate at the end of a private drive and situated on 2/3 of an acre. Beyond the wrought iron gate is the large circular drive, leading to tranquility: redwood & fruit trees, pool, spa, Koi ponds, waterfall, manicured landscaping with verdant grass, creating a park-like setting for the two-level 3,421 SF home with separate office. First time to market in nearly 30 years. This is a fabulous opportunity to be the next owner! The home has had many updates over the years and the primary suite was added in 2003, along with the 2 car garage with 3/4 bath. This home boasts a stunning balcony running the entire length and a generous screened-in porch that may well become your favorite spot to relax with gorgeous views of the grounds. Enter through the French doors into a generous size living room with a brick fireplace. The living room opens to the dining room with floor-to-ceiling sliding doors & windows showcasing the picturesque grounds. The kitchen features granite counters, gas range, travertine backsplash, garden windows, and a pantry. There is a convenient 3/4 bath off the living room. The immaculate, glistening oak hardwood floors run the entire length of the main floor. In a separate wing are four bedrooms and two full baths opening off of a stately hall. All bedrooms have French doors to the home's balcony and its beautiful views. The light-filled primary en-suite, added in 2003, features a gas fireplace, vaulted ceiling, large walk-in closet, sitting area, and attractive bath with steam shower. The primary suite has direct access to the pool and spa area, where home music can play seamlessly between the primary and pool area through a built-in system.The lower floor offers a large family room with wet bar, laundry area, abundant storage, 3 sets of sliding doors to the spacious grounds, and a private en-suite with 3/4 bath that would be perfect for guests or multigenerational living. Past the two-car garage is another highlight of the home... the pool, spa, and covered dining area bordered by mature foliage, providing unparalleled privacy for entertaining. Behind the home is a separate office/shed that's served by a convenient 3/4 bath in the garage. Make some new memories in this very special home!
