3788 Seagull's Nest ~ Walk to Town and the Beach

Sanctuary Vacation Rentals is proud to present “The Seagull’s Nest”! Home sleeps up to 6 guests.

The best of past and present are combined in this historic Victorian cottage in downtown Pacific Grove, within easy walking distance of the beach as well as dining, shopping and the local movie theater. Or you may just want to relax and enjoy views of the bay from the cozy living room, decorated to reflect the coastal environment.

The blue and white 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence, built in 1905, has been updated to offer modern conveniences while still embracing its vintage roots. The pet-friendly home also has a back patio that is fenced for privacy, a perfect place to enjoy a backyard barbecue or a glass of wine in the evenings.

The home is within walking distance of the Monterey Bay Aquarium and Cannery Row, and just a few blocks from the Monterey Bay Recreation Trail, a popular place for cycling and walking. Also close by are the world-class golf courses and restaurants of Pebble Beach®. Other attractions within a 30-45 minute drive are the natural wonders of Big Sur and wine tasting and dining in Carmel Valley Village.

Hardwood floors and recessed lighting can be found throughout the 1,092-square-foot home, with walls painted in a soft shade of tan and complementary décor in blues, whites and taupe for a soothing ambiance. The fully equipped kitchen features stainless steel appliances and a dining area that seats six. A convenient master bedroom on the first floor has an HDTV and an en suite bath.

Living Spaces
Guests enter the home via a short flight of stairs to the porch, where the red front door opens into the entryway and living room. Views of the Monterey Bay can be glimpsed from the living room, which features a 48-inch HDTV, roman shades and cozy seating.

Kitchen and Dining
The adjacent kitchen features granite countertops, vintage-look cabinetry and stainless steel appliances, including a four-burner gas stove. A gooseneck kitchen faucet and double sink make cleanups a snap. A dining area at the end of the kitchen looks out over rooftops of other historic buildings in the downtown area. The back door leads to an outdoor patio area decorated with string lights and succulents, offering patio seating and a gourmet gas grill.

Bedrooms and Bathrooms
Downstairs, Bedroom #1 offers a queen bed, TV, direct access to the back patio and an updated en suite bathroom with a shower.

Also downstairs, a sleek hallway bathroom with a pocket door features hexagonal tile floors, a corner shower with custom tile, and a glass basin sink.

Upstairs, Bedroom #2 features a queen bed and built-in storage.
Bedroom #3 has a king bed and a peek of the bay.
Please note that both bathrooms are downstairs.

A laundry closet near the living spaces offers a stacked washer and dryer.

Parking is available on the street.

One well-behaved dog under 30 lbs is welcome with pre-approval, an additional pet fee and a signed pet addendum.
Dogs must never be left unattended in the house or in the yard and should not disturb neighbors with barking.

Cozy House Near Beach was Perfect Family Retreat

We had a great stay over New Year’s Eve. We walked to the downtown area where there were several restaurants, coffee shops, and markets. We walked to the aquarium along the beach which was beautiful, a bit windy that day but we were bundled up. The home is well supplied with all cooking supplies and had extra blankets and good WiFi and we appreciated the organized kitchen and communication. We had several meals around the large dining room table that had a bench on one side so could seat up to seven (although we had 5). The complimentary wine, cheese, and crackers was a nice touch! A great home away from home.

Rennsport weekend

We loved the house! It was very nice, clean & conveniently located. The location was great. Restaurants only a block away, we loved the Victorian restaurant for breakfast! The kitchen was well stocked. We ate out mostly but did eat breakfast there. Would have liked a regular toaster, the toaster oven didn’t work very good. Would definitely stay again. We have 2 golden retrievers & it was nice to have a backyard & walking to the Lover’s Point Park was so nice. Great ocean front!

Cute property in a great location. Nicely updated while maintaining original charm. Minor issues with hot water in one of the showers. Super clean, had everything we needed. Information about staying at the property, including specific instructions, were clear & to-the-point. We were 4 adult occupants to the 6 or 7 max limit; 3 adults sharing one of the 2 tiny bathrooms for a week was a bit...challenging. I couldn't recommend it for 6 or 7 adults who are accustomed to more space but we did enjoy our stay there.

Cute spot in downtown PG

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved the location, great walks with the family and pups to get food, browse shops and down to the water to watch sea otters! The house was cute with a beachy theme. For our group of 5 adults it was a little small, not everyone could comfortably relax in the living room at once, but there was great space at the farm style dining table through the kitchen. We will definitely consider staying here again. Property management was responsive, thank you!

Great Escape

Rating Details: The property manager was very 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: Enjoyed our week long stay here. The best part of the house is its location - a 10min walk to Lovers Point, a few minutes to nearby coffee shop (Captain & Stoker), restaurants on Lighthouse Avenue and nearby grocery stores (1.2mi drive to TJs and Safeway). Also, for a 3 bedroom house, the common space is a little tight/cosy - living room is probably comfortable for 3 people at most. Also the backyard is cute but not completely private - adjacent neighbors on the 2nd floor can see into the backyard/house - because of this, I would recommend the house get a patio umbrella. This will not only provide shade but also some privacy. Last, there's several ChargePoint charging stations within a few mins walk (in the Fandango parking lot), including two fast chargers, which is super convenient if you need to charge your EV overnight or for a quick fast charge!All in all cute little place that is well maintained and in a very central location!
