pebble beach real estate: How Monterey Car Week Became a Global Collector-Car Auction Capital - 08/18/26 12:44 PM

Photo Credit: Prova MO / Wikimedia Commons / CC BY-SA 4.0
Quick answer: Monterey’s modern collector-car auction tradition began in 1986, when Rick Cole organized the first dedicated Monterey auction during Pebble Beach weekend. What started as one pioneering sale developed into one of the world’s most important annual marketplaces for rare and historically significant automobiles.
Every August, the Monterey Peninsula becomes a rolling automotive museum. Historic race cars return to the track at Laguna Seca, important automobiles gather on the Pebble Beach lawn, and collectors from around the world fill auction rooms in Monterey, Pebble Beach and Carmel Valley.
The auctions now feel … (2 comments)

pebble beach real estate: 7 Questions Before Buying a Monterey Peninsula Second Home - 08/15/26 02:02 PM
7 Questions to Ask Before Buying a Second Home on the Monterey PeninsulaBuying a second home on the Monterey Peninsula can begin as an emotional decision.
You visit Carmel, Pebble Beach, Pacific Grove, Monterey or Carmel Valley and start imagining what it would be like if you didn't have to leave on Sunday afternoon.
That's often where the idea begins.
But before deciding which house to buy, I think buyers should answer a few more practical questions.
The answers can dramatically change which community—and which type of property—makes the most sense.
1. What Will You Actually Do When You're Here?This sounds obvious, but it may be … (5 comments)

pebble beach real estate: Which Lifestyle fits you? Carmel or Pebble Beach? - 08/15/26 01:41 PM
Carmel vs. Pebble Beach for a Second Home: Which Lifestyle Fits You?For many buyers considering a second home on the Monterey Peninsula, the search eventually comes down to two names:
Carmel-by-the-Sea or Pebble Beach.
They are neighbors. They share spectacular coastline, beautiful homes and access to some of the best dining, golf and recreation on the Monterey Peninsula.
But owning a second home in Carmel can feel very different from owning one in Pebble Beach.
The better choice usually isn't determined by which community is more prestigious.
It comes down to how you want to spend your time once you own the home.
Choose Carmel if You … (2 comments)

pebble beach real estate: Best Second Home Community on the Monterey Peninsula? - 08/14/26 11:26 AM

Where Should You Buy a Second Home on the Monterey Peninsula?There is a point during many visits to the Monterey Peninsula when the conversation changes.
It starts with, “Wouldn’t it be nice to spend more time here?”
Then it becomes, “What if we owned a place here?”
And before long, the real question is:
Where on the Monterey Peninsula should we buy a second home?
That question is more complicated than it may seem.
Carmel-by-the-Sea, Pebble Beach, Pacific Grove, Monterey and Carmel Valley are all remarkably close to one another, yet owning a home in each can provide a very different experience.
That is why I recently put … (1 comments)

pebble beach real estate: Monterey, California: A Fascinating History on the West Coast - 05/28/26 11:53 AM
Why Monterey, California Has One of the Most Fascinating Histories on the West CoastMonterey, California is not just another beautiful coastal town. It is one of the most historically important communities on the West Coast, with a story that reaches from Spanish and Mexican California to the modern Monterey Peninsula lifestyle people seek today.

pebble beach real estate: Why the Lone Cypress Still Defines Pebble Beach Living - 04/29/26 07:04 PM
Why the Lone Cypress Still Defines Pebble Beach LivingSome landmarks are famous because they are beautiful. Others become iconic because they tell a deeper story.
The Lone Cypress in Pebble Beach does both.
Perched dramatically on a granite outcropping along 17-Mile Drive, the Lone Cypress is one of the most recognizable natural landmarks on the Monterey Peninsula. It has stood against coastal wind, salt air, storms, and crashing Pacific surf for generations, becoming a symbol not only of Pebble Beach, but of the quiet resilience and natural elegance that define this stretch of California coastline.
For visitors, it is a must-see stop. For homeowners … (7 comments)
