About This Home

As of November 2023

Yo, Adrian, Balboa is on the market! Otherwise known as Pacific Grove's Compass Rose Cottage, 925 Balboa is the quintessential beach cottage. Charming. Clean as a whistle. A stones throw from the beach with wonderful views, while not being front line to car traffic. Room to expand or simply enjoy as it is as this family has done for several decades. Updated. Well Cared for. Splendid. Unique. Superb location. Simply amazing. Imagine your life spending time in this cottage.
