Property description
This coastal Victorian pairs timeless character with thoughtful updates and a mature garden setting that feels worlds away. High ceilings, French doors, and a Parisian-inspired patio bring in incredible light. Two ensuites, one with a clawfoot tub, one with a walk-in shower, offer comfort and privacy. A flexible loft works beautifully as a bedroom, library, or art space. Fully fenced for pets, with a covered front porch perfect for greeting neighbors. Just moments to Lovers Point, cafes, shops, and everyday conveniences. Honored by the Pacific Grove Heritage Society as one of the iconic homes in the City's Retreat District. First time on the market in 20 years.
