FIXER UPPER/INVESTOR SPECIAL! Tucked among the trees on a generous 9,310-square-foot lot, this 1953 Monterey home offers beautiful hillside views and a chance to bring your vision to life. Much of the home remains original, creating a blank canvas for your updates. The kitchen features classic wood cabinetry and a functional layout, while larger windows bring natural light into the living areas. Bedrooms offer closet space, and flooring includes carpet and vintage patterned linoleum. A newer tankless water heater and newer double-wide garage door are already in place. Outside, a wooden deck and access ramp offer possibilities, though the deck is in poor condition and needs substantial attention. The freeway is directly below, and traffic noise is noticeable; ADDING dual-pane windows may help reduce interior noise. Enjoy a setting with a sense of seclusion and convenient access to Highway 1, Monterey Peninsula dining, beaches, and shopping. With original character, a spacious lot, and room to personalize, this property is an opportunity for buyers ready to renovate. Bring your contractor, explore the possibilities, and imagine the next chapter for this hillside home. Come see the setting, assess the work needed, and decide how you would make it your own.
