Life’s a beach at this charming historic house in the heart of America’s Last Hometown, only a short walk to the bay, the Monterey Peninsula Recreation Trail, and shopping and dining in downtown Pacific Grove. Perfectly situated for surfers, kayakers and beachcombers, the blue-and-white 1,800-square-foot home built by Benjamin Barber in 1908 has been updated with whimsical coastal décor with a Hawaiian vibe, hardwood floors throughout and mini electric fireplaces in each bedroom.
