The views out into the Monterey pine forest in this part of the Old Del Monte neighborhood are tranquil and relaxing.

The materials used throughout the house are top notch.  The floors in the kitchen, family room, office as well as the bedrooms and halls are imported European wood floors.  The sunken Monterey Gourmet Kitchenliving room is custom polished and stained concrete and the foyer floors are the original 1960’s tile that have been cleaned and restored.  Just about every window in the house has been replaced with a much more energy efficient version of what came out. The electrical panels have been upgraded, LED lighting has been installed along with numerous outdoor motion lights.  The entire home was rewired for wireless and internet plus cable/dish.

The majority of the homes here are mid-century modern homes or California ranch style homes with many Spanish Revival homes sprinkled in.  Although there are homes that sit directly on Old Del Monte Golf Course, they really do not come on the market for sale that often and when they do they typically start over $1,000,000 and can go up significantly from there.  

Homes in general are an eclectic mixture, like most of Monterey and the Monterey peninsula cities with big beautiful luxury homes built right next to older homes in need of remodeling.  Manor Road, Jacks Road and Deer Flat Road have some very large estate homes as does Castro Road, especially along the Old Del Monte Golf Course side of the street.

The Littlefield area, including Abinante Way is a very nice development offering home owners privacy and the feeling of being in a safe community where everyone seems to know everyone else.  

The Old Del Monte neighborhood runs from Mark Thomas Drive to the west, Josselyn Canyon Road to the north, Aquajito Road as its southern boundary and Monhollan Road as its boundary to the East.
