Just north of the peninsula along the shores of Monterey Bay in central California is the small city of Seaside. The community is known as a more affordable alternative to better known cities like Monterey and Carmel-by-the-Sea, while maintaining many similar scenic oceanfront views. Residents of Seaside enjoy fantastic access to the sandy shores of Monterey Bay and Fort Ord Dunes State Park. There's also numerous opportunities to live alongside the fairways of Bayonet and Black Horse Golf courses. This incredible oceanside community is also positioned just a few miles from the attractions of Monterey, Pebble Beach and Carmel, as well as the well regarded wineries and hiking found in the nearby Carmel Valley.
Seaside was founded as an extension to nearby Monterey in 1887, and incorporated as a city in its own right by 1954. This established character is evident throughout the variety of older neighborhoods that make up the city. Interested home buyers will find a wide range of homes, from the affordable from the 60s and 70s, to the larger single-family homes found in planned communities alongside Seaside's pair of modern golf courses - Bayonet and Black Horse.
The Seaside homes for sale offer incredible values in an amazing natural climate that you'd expect along this section of California's beautiful coastline. The community of just over 33,000 residents enjoys a median house price of $350K. The city also enjoys a celebrated education system that features both the Monterey campus of California State University and the Monterey College of Law.
