*Please do not disturb current occupants!* Email for link to video tour or to schedule a showing (showings available after February 28). Large, family friendly 5 bedroom home located on a quiet cul-de-sac in Skyline Forest. Enjoy the privacy of having space at the top of the hill with the convenience of a short low-traffic (or bike!) commute to NPS, DLI, Presidio, Cannery Row, Fisherman's Wharf, the Aquarium, and other locations. The yard and outdoor spaces so close to the city make this a great family find in Monterey! . 3 miles to Carmel, right on the border of Pebble Beach and Pacific Grove, quick commute to Asilomar and other beaches. Great neighbors. Quiet cul-de-sac in the forest. . The house is 2 stories. There are spacious and open dining and living areas, with beamed ceilings and room for a large dining table. The dining/kitchen area boasts floor to ceiling windows that look to the outside patio, so there is lots of natural light. The living room has redwood beamed ceilings, original from the redwood cabin which is what the house started as. There is an electric fireplace insert the living room. The galley kitchen comes supplied with a farm sink, stainless steel refrigerator, dishwasher, garbage disposal, gas range/oven, and built in microwave. Lots of cabinets with soft-close hardware. . A hallway leads from the living area to a laundry room with utility sink (stainless stacked washer/dryer included), a downstairs full bathroom with shower and linen closet, and 2 bedrooms. Original restored hardwood floors fill the hallway and bedrooms. The larger of the bedrooms has 2 closets, room for a king or queen bed plus table and chair, and has its own sliding door exit into the side yard via a small deck with stairs. The smaller room is perfect for a kid's room, smaller guest room, or office, and also has a closet with built-ins. There is a large under-stairs "Harry Potter" type closet that provides excellent extra storage or a great pantry under the main stairs near. . Upstairs, a large master suite has floor to ceiling sliding glass doors to let the breeze in. Hardwood floors, beamed ceiling, a vented natural gas heater, and great windows for natural light complete the room. Plenty of room for a King bed, chairs, vanity, end tables and dresser. The room leads through a walk-through closet with built-ins into the master bath. The master bath has double sinks, a jacuzzi tub and a pull up shower sprayer nozzle, but no stand-up shower. A door leads into the next full bathroom, which has a stand-up shower, and also its own door to the hallway (it could be used as an extension of the master, or separate guest bathroom; the door between both bathrooms locks). There is a laundry chute from the master bathroom to the laundry room below. . At the end of the hallway are two more bedrooms. One is a large bedroom, with 2 closets, a skylight, and a beamed ceiling. It also has entry to a storage space (like an attic, only floor level, above the living room). The other room is a smaller room, with a single closet, built in bookshelves, and beamed ceilings (perfect for a home office or can be used as another kids' room). Both of these bedrooms have individual gas heaters. Each story has its own separate water heater. . The property has a large fenced outdoor space. The front yard has natural-looking long astroturf that therefore stays green all year, a gate from the street and a gate from the driveway. The front door opens onto the cul-de-sac, with just 4 other houses on the street. The front yard flows into a side yard with oak trees, space for seating or play, a compost bin, and another gate to the main street. This then connects to the back walk, which has a path leading to the back patio, which you can also access through a sliding glass door from the kitchen/dining room. A storage shed in the back is perfect for tools or gardening equipment. Patio is perfect for a gas fire pit and an evening sit. .
