Tucked into Monterey's sun belt a short stroll from Del Monte Beach, this fully renovated Spanish bungalow lives far larger than its footprint. The bright, open main house pairs 1924 character with a remodeled kitchen featuring quartz counters, stainless appliances, and designer tile, plus a beautifully updated bath and two restful bedrooms. Outside is where it wins: a rare street-to-street lot with a private fenced yard, multiple patios for dining al fresco, and a versatile detached bonus space with rear access, ready for your office, gym, or creative pursuits. Walk or bike to the Rec Trail, the wharf, and downtown in minutes, then come home to sunshine while the fog settles elsewhere. Turnkey and proven as a high-performing rental, it shines as a full-time residence, coastal getaway, or income property. Homes offering this location, condition, and flexibility rarely surface at this price. Leave by the back gate and your toes are in the sand in about five minutes.
