Property Description

Welcome home to a beautifully restored and turnkey mid-century California Ranch-style residence on a quiet, tree-lined cul-de-sac in South Salinas. Fully renovated with a thoughtful eye toward its original character, this single-level three-bedroom, two-bath property combines refined indoor/outdoor living with all-new electrical, plumbing, landscaping, wood floors, fixtures, and abundant natural light throughout. The bright living room centers around a generous picture window and original brick fireplace, while a separate family den features a gorgeous Douglas fir wood-beamed ceiling, custom built-in cabinetry, and its own brick fireplace. Together, they create distinct spaces for gathering and relaxing. Walls of glass sliders open to a broad outdoor deck designed for al fresco entertaining and a lush, private backyard with a rolling green lawn, mature orange, apricot, and apple trees, garden beds, purple sage, and dozens of other pollinators creating a vibrant garden that draws hummingbirds and butterflies throughout the day. The entire backyard is served by a timed irrigation system, making upkeep of the verdant garden remarkably easy. There is also ample space for a possible addition, ADU, or pool. Back inside, the cook's kitchen is outfitted with new stainless steel appliances and opens to an expansive dining area. The primary bedroom looks out over the backyard and features generous closet space and a luxe ensuite bath. Two additional bedrooms have roomy closets and share a simple yet chic bathroom with a soaking tub. A direct-access two-car garage includes EV charging hookups, laundry, and abundant storage. One of just sixteen homes on this private and peaceful cul-de-sac, all distinguished by excellent curb appeal, the property combines privacy, pride of ownership, and convenient access to the best schools, parks, shopping, dining, Highway 68, and the Monterey Peninsula. With all the major work already completed, this is a wonderful and welcoming property where its next lucky owners can simply move in, make themselves at home, and enjoy from day one.
