3893 Sweet Seventeenth - Near Downtown & Beach

Sanctuary Vacation Rentals is proud to present "Sweet Seventeenth"! Home sleeps up to 4 guests.

Located on a charming street full of colorful homes and small businesses and just half a block off Pacific Grove's Lighthouse Avenue, guests will enjoy the best of all worlds - quaint Victorian architecture, modern conveniences, quiet nights and being just steps away from downtown Pacific Grove restaurants and other attractions. Lover's Point Beach is just three blocks away. Park the car and walk everywhere including local favorites like Pavel's Bakery, Juice and Java, Fandango and Grove Market.

Living Spaces
Follow the flagstone path and climb the steps of this delightful 969 sf Victorian era home to reach the small covered porch with a bench where you can while away the hours, people watching in between outings around the town.
This whimsical home has tall ceilings and windows along with charming painted wood floors throughout.
An open concept flows from the front parlor living room through the dining room and into the kitchen.
Seating in the living room includes a comfortable sofa, arm chair and ottomans grouped in front of the decorative fireplace where battery operated candles give the space a warm glow and a TV is mounted to the wall.
In addition to the main living space inside the house, a detached garage conversion is home to a family room that is ideal for lounging; two sets of French doors let in great light. A flat screen TV, game table, games, sofa and a desk space all coexist in this multi-purpose space.

Kitchen and Dining
The fully-equipped kitchen is ready for preparing meals when you want to dine in, but just steps away are numerous Pacific Grove eateries.
A tin backsplash adorns the main portion of the kitchen along with cheerfully painted cabinets, stove/oven, sink and dishwasher. The kitchen extends into the laundry area with more built-in storage for small appliances, the refrigerator, a second sink and the stacking washer and dryer.
The kitchen island has two stools for casual counter seating and the wooden dining table and chairs with caning is another great place to gather.

Bedrooms and Bathrooms
This 2 bedroom, 1.5 bathroom vacation home is perfect for up to 4 guests.
Bedroom #1 is in the center of the home, off the dining room and it has a queen bed. This bedroom also has direct access to the half-bath which also has access from the dining room area.
Bedroom #2 is located near the entry, separated from the living room by two wooden sliding doors and it has a queen bed with iron headboard and a small fold-down writing desk. Painted wainscoting and so many sweet details hearken back to yesteryear.
The home has a full bathroom with a standing shower. On-demand hot water is one of many conveniences in the home.

The rear and side yards are partially fenced for privacy and the rear patio has a table and chairs for dining al fresco and a small propane grill is a tasty cooking option near the outdoor sink. A few steps through the garden take you to the detached lounge room.

One off street parking space is provided. Street parking in front of the home is sometimes available with a time limit; more parking options with no time limits are just 1/2 block away. No garage. Just across the street is a small municipal parking lot which has several short term parking spaces.

Well-behaved small, hypo-allergenic dogs are welcome with pre-approval, an additional pet fee and a signed pet addendum.

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. Each home has beach towels, shower and bath amenities and spa-style robes. Our team is available 7 days a week to assist you. We look forward to hosting you!

The sweet house had a great location with comfortable beds, a well stocked kitchen, spacious dining room and so nice to have 2 bathrooms! We were within walking distance to a great trail along the Bay and some very good restaurants and coffee/bookstore. Since we came in an EV, there were Level 2 EV chargers right across the street. Also great communication with managers. Would come again!

Sweet little house

We came to Pacific Grove for the cool weather walking. In 3 weeks we walked 104 miles. This house is 3 blocks from the bay. Walked to the aquarium one day and Asilomar the next. Pacific Grove is a nice town. The house is small but nicely organized. Comfortable beds, great kitchen, driveway parking. Close to restaurants and coffeehouses. We went to Fandango twice. Great trip.

Location and charm

Family with 2 older teens stayed for 3 weeks, escaping the AZ heat. Absolutely adorable home. Kitchen is nicely redone and modern. It is an original old house. Perfect location for us. Steps to the market and two great restaurants. A block down to the main road and lots of places to eat and shop right there. Out kids loved being able to walk and get sushi whenever they wanted. Then just a few more blocks down the hill to Lovers Point/Beach and the trail that goes to Monterey. We walked a short distance toward Monterey every evening and say 15-20 sea otters right off shore very active. Walked to the aquarium one day. Could use new more supportive mattresses. It can be a little noisy from the people Al walking by/deliveries to the store and restaurants and the fire station is right at the corner but it didn’t keep us awake. Loved having the parking in the driveway! Eve had a family of deer between our car and the garbage cans one evening. I walked to yoga from the house as well. The outside room could be a fun place to hang out but it is just too musty/milldewy to enjoy it. But we didn’t need that. It was a wonderful way to enjoy the area and the weather.

Cozy bright cottage close to Lover's Point

This bright happy cottage was a source of solace after busy days hiking with friends. We played games after dinner around the big table. I took my dog on lots of walks to the oceanside at Lover's Point. The house has lots of character, high ceilings, big windows, bright colors. A great location. Easy parking. Everything you need for a comfy stay, quirky layout but it all works out. Way more spacious than expected. Thank you!

Cute house and great location

Overall this is a really nice little house. Quirky like older houses can be. Location is terrific and walkable to shops, restaurants and the coast. The heat does come from a floor vent that gets really hot so be careful with kids and pets. My only gripe isn’t with the house at all. We had asked multiple times if we could check in early due to the lengthy drive we had. The first request was responded to saying we had to ask the day of check in. If you have a long drive you can’t really ask the day of. Otherwise it’s a cute, well maintained house.

Perfect stay in Pacific Grove

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this charming house in Pacific Grove. The location (one block up from Lighthouse) can’t be beat, as it is also an easy walk to Lover’s Point. We enjoyed family games of Foosball and the outdoor interior courtyard was great for enjoying the sun in the afternoon. The house was clean and well-stocked with a great shower. Highly recommend!

A Perfect Location

This property was in excellent condition even though it was built around 1893. The outside of the house was kept true to the time of its construction, but the inside was completely remodeled and updated, especially the kitchen and dining area. The kitchen was well stocked with plenty of everything needed to prepare and serve a meal. The decor of the house was lovely, especially the stained glass window in the living room. It was a very comfortable and inviting place to stay. The location of the house was wonderful. We were close to downtown and lots of dining venues. We enjoyed sitting outside at the Monarch Pub, just down the street from us, and watching the activity around us. It was very relaxing. The full bathroom was located on the back porch and was somewhat inconvenient, but it worked out okay.
