About Monterey, CA

Monterey, CA is one of the most dynamic, historic, and naturally beautiful coastal cities on the Monterey Peninsula. Known for its stunning waterfront, vibrant marine life, rich cultural heritage, and world-famous attractions like Cannery Row and the Monterey Bay Aquarium, Monterey offers a rare blend of lifestyle, history, and coastal charm. Homebuyers are drawn to its scenic beaches, walkable districts, outdoor recreation, and strong long-term real estate value.

Monterey’s neighborhoods are incredibly diverse. Buyers will find everything from charming mid-century homes in Monte Vista and Oak Knoll to updated residences in Mar Vista, Del Monte Park, and New Monterey. Coastal living is at its best in Del Monte Beach, where homes sit steps from the sand and offer some of the peninsula’s most affordable beachfront opportunities. The architectural style ranges from classic California cottages to Spanish-inspired homes, contemporary remodels, and ocean-view condos overlooking the Monterey Bay.

The Monterey real estate market remains competitive due to strong demand from Bay Area buyers, military and medical professionals, and locals seeking a vibrant yet relaxed coastal community. Proximity to CHOMP, NPS, DLI, and CSU Monterey Bay makes Monterey a highly desirable hub for residents across many professions. Many neighborhoods offer excellent walkability to restaurants, parks, trails, beaches, and waterfront areas—an important driver of home value.

Outdoor enthusiasts thrive in Monterey. Residents enjoy miles of coastal trails, kayaking and paddleboarding on the bay, surfing at Del Monte Beach, and easy access to the Monterey Recreation Trail, which stretches from Pacific Grove to Marina. The city also hosts festivals, harbor events, and cultural celebrations throughout the year.

As a 3rd-generation Realtor® with deep roots on the Monterey Peninsula, I help buyers and sellers navigate Monterey’s micro-neighborhoods, market dynamics, pricing strategies, and long-term investment potential. Whether you're relocating, purchasing your first home, searching for an ocean-view property, or preparing to sell, Monterey offers a truly exceptional coastal lifestyle with enduring appeal.
