Do you remember this ode to summertime? What memories come up for you? Please share!

For me it was heading to the beach, not a care in the world, feeling the warm sun on my face and the sand between my toes.

Wait, I can still do that now! Yea!

Whatever your summer wishes and dreams are I hope you are on your way to making them come true.

Why is the Country Club area of Pebble Beach the choice of so many that move to the Monterey Peninsula?  I’m sure there are many reasons . . . for one thing, you can take a short lovely stroll and end up at the beach listening to the surf and enjoying a picnic or an amazing sunset!

It’s a quiet and serene way to live close to nature, yet it’s easy and quick to get to shopping in Pacific Grove or to Highway One to visit the other Monterey Peninsula cities.

Pacific Grove Golf Links

It is a mecca for golf with both public and private courses minutes away.  Pacific Grove Golf Links “offers the most affordable golf on or near the Pacific Ocean”  The back nine has breath-taking views of the coast and the course also offers a pro shop and restaurant.

The famous Monterey Peninsula Country Club is a private club near by that hosts the AT&T Pro Am that will be taking place in early February 2016.  In addition to these courses there are many public courses in Pebble Beach as well as in the surrounding area.

The Country Club area is known for privacy as well as quiet.  The parcels are much larger than in nearby Pacific Grove.  For instance the lot size of the home at 1117 Sawmill Gulch Road is a quarter of an acre allowing space between neighbors.

Ok, back to why is this amazing home the Best Buy in Pebble Beach? I confess this is a bit subjective, but look at the facts.  It is priced at a reasonable $1,295,000 (just look at the prices of some of the others!) yet is beautifully remodeled.  The owners lovingly did extensive upgrades after they purchased the home updating the kitchen, baths, windows, flooring, fireplace, and installing new baseboards, crown moldings, French doors, skylights, and Casablanca fans.  They also upgraded the things you can ‘t see like the electrical, plumbing and outdoor drainage system.

Why do I love this home?  I love it’s flow. It’s all single level with one room easily flowing into the next.  Also, the vaulted ceilings in the living room give it a very spacious feel – you have a sense it is much larger than the 2123 SF it actually is.

And the gourmet kitchen is amazing!

I love to kick-back and the family room is my kind of place to do just that.  Numerous windows and skylights make it a bright, light room.

Family room with slate flooring for easy indoor/outdoor ease.

The 2-car garage is extra roomy with room for storage and a work bench even with 2 cars inside.  That would make my husband very happy :)

If I have peaked your curiosity Take a Complete Tour along with a video if you hang in there.  The floor plan and Feature list is also included with the Virtual tour.  Or . . . just come by one of the Open Houses this weekend and see for yourself!!  Of course, I am always available to give you a private tour.
