Property is move-in ready.
Despite its 1910 origin, the property is exceptionally well-maintained and move-in ready. It features professionally refinished hardwood floors and clean interior finishes. The utility area shows functional HVAC ducting and updated laundry facilities, suggesting the systems are well-kept rather than dated or failing.
Elementary School: Robert Down Elementary School (9/10). High School: Pacific Grove High School (9/10).
Originally a gatehouse with a unique history, the home features authentic Del Monte forest architecture, a Carmel Stone exterior, and a stone fireplace, offering a rare and charming aesthetic.
Situated on a quiet street with views of the Bay and Ocean, the property is within walking distance to the shops and restaurants of Lighthouse Avenue and the scenic Lovers Point Beach.
With only one bathroom and approximately 1,095 square feet of living space, the home may feel restrictive for those requiring more modern spatial utility or larger family accommodations.
The 2,700 square foot lot is relatively compact, which limits private outdoor living space and potential for future structural expansions.
Awaken to views of the Bay in this charming home, filled with sunlight. This historic 2 bedroom 1 bath home originally was the gatehouse between Pacific Grove and Pebble Beach. In approximately 1929 it was transported on a sled, drawn by 16 horses, to its current location at 315 Cypress Avenue. A few years later it was expanded and its exterior walls were covered in beautiful Carmel Stone. From the stone fireplace and professionally refinished hardwood floors, to its authentic Del Monte forest architecture, this home delivers a unique, comforting feel. Shaded by a magnificent Monterey Cypress tree, it sits on wide, quiet Cypress Avenue with neighboring homes that share its distinctive Pacific Grove character. A short distance from Lighthouse Avenue with its great shops and restaurants, and on to Lovers Point Beach.
