864 West Monterey Avenue

Just blocks from the University of the Pacific and the shops and dining of the Miracle Mile, this beautifully preserved 1937 single-story delivers period character without the project list. Crown molding runs throughout, giving every room the finish this era is loved for. The kitchen has been updated with quartz counters and stainless steel appliances, and both bathrooms have been updated as well. A permitted family room addition opens directly to the backyard, where a sport pool added in 2020 sits surrounded by beautifully stamped concrete, with a separate pool bathroom outside so swimmers never track through the house. The pool is plumbed for solar, and new electrical was installed in 2019, giving this classic home a modern foundation behind its vintage charm. Three bedrooms and 2,137 square feet of comfortable single-level living, with a fireplace anchoring the main room and central heat and air throughout. The third bedroom is currently arranged as a handsome home office and includes a Murphy bed, so it converts back to sleeping quarters in moments. A two-car garage plus an additional covered carport is a rare find for a home of this era, all on a generous 7,000 square foot lot.
