About this property

3747 Bungalow by-the-Sea ~ Charming Home with Garage, Walk to Town & Beach!

Sanctuary Vacation Rentals is proud to present “Bungalow-by-the-Sea”! Sleeps 4

A meticulously restored, single-level Pacific Grove cottage offers peace, quiet and privacy in a tree-lined neighborhood that is within walking distance of parks, the Monterey Bay Recreation Trail, and downtown restaurants and attractions.

The 2-bedroom, 1-bath 850-square-foot home, built in 1923, has been remodeled to keep all of its historic charm while adding modern conveniences and a beautifully landscaped yard.

Among the many charming features are vintage shutters, plaster walls, an original Carmel stone fireplace, vaulted ceilings, and large windows that let in generous natural light. The coastal/eclectic interiors reflect the nearby beaches in soothing tones of white, driftwood and blue.

The home is just a quick half-mile walk from downtown Pacific Grove or to the bay and Recreation Trail; it’s also close to wooded trails throughout dog-friendly Washington Park and nearby 17 Mile Drive and Pebble Beach®. Other nearby attractions such as the Monterey Bay Aquarium and Cannery Row are about 5-10 minutes away by car, and shopping and dining in Carmel-by-the-Sea are within 15 minutes.

The landscaped front yard features native grasses, rosemary and succulents with a backdrop of California live oaks. Inside, the living room features a unique artisan-made iron chandelier, hardwood plank flooring, and cozy seating around a Carmel stone fireplace with gas log that will become the focal point of family gathering, games and conversation.

Open access to the kitchen creates a great-room feeling throughout the living space. Limestone countertops, Edison bulb light fixtures, vintage-style white cabinetry and hardwood plank flooring, in addition to stainless steel appliances that include a Bosch self-cleaning gas range and convection oven, and a Bosch dishwasher that matches the cabinetry. Seating for two is available at a glass-topped bistro table. A table in the living room area can be expanded to accommodate dining for four along with four folding chairs.

Access to the back yard through the kitchen makes it simple to organize afternoon barbecues. A propane grill is available on the back patio in addition to comfortable seating, making this a perfect spot to sit and enjoy a glass of wine in the evening. The front patio has additional outdoor seating.

Bedrooms and Bathrooms
Bedroom #1 features a king-sized bed and a TV.
Bedroom #2 offers a queen bed.
Both bedrooms feature coastal décor in blues, grays and white.
A newly remodeled hall bathroom features a tub/shower combo with custom tile, a tile vanity, and large mirror.

The home offers central heating and a stacked washer and gas dryer in a kitchen cabinet.

A one-car detached garage is available as well as off-street parking for two cars in the driveway.

Well-behaved dogs are welcome with pre-approval, an additional pet fee and a signed pet addendum. The house is located near dog-friendly Washington Park.

This home is a monthly rental and we request that all nights of your stay are within the same calendar month. Some exceptions may be possible, with the approval of our team and the homeowner.

This vacation home is professionally managed by Sanctuary Vacation Rentals. With over 15 years of property management experience, Sanctuary strives to provide environments that nurture and inspire with all the comforts of home.

Lovely Cottage
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I liked this cottage very much. It has lots of windows and plantation shutters throughout, which were great for letting sunlight in by day, and keeping the cold out at night. The beds were super comfortable, and the bed linens were good quality. The kitchen was well stocked with attractive dinnerware, and decent cookware. There was a comfortable sofa in the living area, but that was the only seating option. It would be nice to have at least one easy chair and good reading lamp available. There's a great big screen TV with both cable and streaming options, and a second TV in the master bedroom. The cottage is located in a peaceful and quiet neighborhood. It's about a 15 minute walk to town, and the coastal trail, which is just a bit further than I like. Overall, I liked this cottage very much. I just wish it was closer to town.

Wonderful!!
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was a lovely place to spend two months - well equipped kitchen, private and sunny patio, comfortable beds. Perfect for two people and a dog, with a large forested park half a block away. Wonderful location - walkable to the ocean and to downtown Pacific Grove. Very quiet neigborhood. Just a note- I would not recommend this house for 2 couples, as there is only one sofa for evening TV viewing or conversations. Folding chairs are fine for dining, but not relaxation.

Charm and location
This is a wonderful and charming bungalow that was perfect for the two of us. It is close to downtown Pacific Grove and the recreation trail. We loved the gas fireplace and all the modern amenities. In fact, we so enjoyed our stay that we plan to return next winter!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our second time at the Bungalow by the Sea. Great location and very nice street. It could use a couple of comfy chairs and next time we'll bring a big stock pot (for pasta.) We'll be back next year!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved this cozy comfortable home. The bed was so comfortable and every appliance in the kitchen was so easy to work. There were different areas to sit in the yard so you could always find sun. The park at the end of the block made it easy to walk the dog. We will definitely stay here again.

February 2020 Stay
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: All things considered the 3747 met all of our needs. We stayed for a month. We have a dog and the house/yard very dog friendly. George Washington Park a half block away an added bonus. Wonderful neighborhoods in which to take walks. The house itself was very cozy but not cramped for two people and a dog with good amenities. Some suggestions:1. The cute stools with pillows pictured pretty much not functional as sitting devices, especially for senior citizens. We purchased a couple of chairs from second hand store at next to nothing for our stay then returned them.2. The cabinet in the corner of the second bedroom looks cute but is unstable when opening the doors-we put shims under the front legs. If any young kids happen to start climbing on it, there could be a disaster.3. Kitchen items were good, except no cheese grater and the pot holders didn't arrive until the first cleaning.4. Hardly enough room for two to eat at the kitchen "cocktail table". 5. After the mid-stay cleaning it appeared that the dirty towels were taken but not replaced. As two people we were fine but if there were four, might be different.6. Had to stand on a chair to reach items at top of kitchen cabinets (discovered the small folding step stool under sink in bathroom towards end of stay).7. Perhaps we missed it, but we never did see written down anywhere the number for the phone land line.Upon leaving we filled out and mailed the evaluation form provided.The above are minor things. If we plan on another extended stay in the future we would book 3747 in a heartbeat and would recommend it to others.

December in Pacific Grove
The location was ideal. Close to downtown, beach, walks. Bungalow is really only for 2. We had our schnauzer with us. She loved the yard and frequent walks. Kitchen was great. Beds were comfortable. Fireplace helped on dark nights. Overall this is a winner!

This was a lovely cottage, exactly as shown in the photos. It was perfect for our stay. We especially loved the proximity to the nearby park, which made walking our dogs so easy. A short 10 minute walk to the ocean got us a great sunset in the night of our arrival.

We couldn't have been more pleased with this charming little house. Very well appointed, comfortable beds, and the outdoor courtyard was lovely.
