Showing and Remarks
  • Supplement Remarks: House was designed to take advantage of the panoramic view! Vacation or telecommute hybrid work-blend of office and remote work! Panoramic view to the east is of Monterey framed by the lush Salinas Valley with the Santa Lucia Mountains beyond and Monterey Bay to the right. At the far end of Cannery Row just after the tip of Monterey at Lovers Point be sure to visit the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Later perhaps dine at one of the restaurants like the Chart House on Cannery Row, putting the best possible face on the property, the roof angle, wood siding/color and large amount of glass provide a similar look. Monterey is a tendering port, meaning it has no docking facilities (wharf or quay) for large vessels. Cruise ships anchor in front of the harbor and their passengers are transported / ferried to the town via tender boats! You will certainly see research, pleasure and fishing boats and farming activity. Salinas is known as the "Salad Bowl of the World" for its large, vibrant agriculture industry. It was the hometown of writer and Nobel laureate John Steinbeck (1902–68), who set many of his stories in the Salinas Valley and Monterey. Watsonville is famous for strawberries and Castroville for artichokes! Carmel and Pebble Beach for beautiful beaches and golf and Big Sur beyond! The panoramic view to the west is of Monterey Bay and in the distance beautiful beaches at Capitola with colorful buildings right next to the ocean, Pleasure Point and LIghthouse Point. Lighthouse Point features a surfing museum in a lighthouse & is the location of the famous surfing spot Steamer Lane, Santa Cruz. San Jose Airport is approximately 55 mins and 1 hr 20 mins to San Francisco Airport SFO both North on HWY 101! Six months or more lease. Panoramic Monterey Bay and surrounding mountain views and, at night the glittering distant lights from the towns along the shore all, suggesting a shore vacation! Elkhorn Slough lies in the middle of the crescent shaped Monterey Bay near Moss Landing Harbor.With counts exceeding 100 animals, Elkhorn Slough has the highest concentration of southern sea otters on the California coast. It is in this estuary habitat that researchers have observed sea otter behavior not seen in other sea otter populations. Hilltop panoramic view in every direction including the entire Monterey Bay. Fully furnished 6 month lease minimum. Located bull's-eye in just about the dead center between Santa Cruz and Monterey and sits in a beautiful 3.45-acres of oak studded land at the hilltop with an aerie 360-degree view setting. It has a private driveway, soaring ceilings in the living areas and, lots of large windows that flood the rooms with light and optimal views, perfectly positioned to offer unobstructed views of Monterey Bay, the surrounding mountains, the big agricultural valleys, and distant lights that suggest a shore vacation. View to the East from the house of Monterey and Lovers Point Park in Pacific Grove located at the tip of Monterey. At night the brilliant distant lights suggest a shore vacation. No cruise ship docked in the bay this day-on a clear moonless night look up at the stars!Designed to take advantage of the view!When the glorious Monterey fog rolls in, things cool off. As the coastal fog rolls in, it offers picturesque scenes and a sense of peace-on a clear moonless night look up at the stars!View to the West is of Monterey Bay and in the distance Pleasure Point and LIghthouse Point. Lighthouse Point features a surfing museum in a lighthouse & is the location of the famous surfing spot Steamer Lane, Santa Cruz, CA. Elkhorn Slough lies in the middle of the crescent shaped Monterey Bay. To the far right are views towards the direction of Henry Cowell Redwoods State Park, The Forest of Nisene Marks State Park, The Sierra Azul Preserve, Mount Umunhum & Loma Prieta Peak.Monterey panoramic mountain view to far left of Lovers Point, beyond Pfeiffer Big Sur State Park & left the Salinas Valley, and Pinnacles National Park.
