Pebble Beach

Five thousand acres of cypress, fairways and coastline, and the most storied address in American golf.

Welcome to Pebble Beach

Pebble Beach is a private, gated community on the Monterey Peninsula, set within the Del Monte Forest between Carmel-by-the-Sea and Pacific Grove. It's about 120 miles south of San Francisco, with the Pacific on one side and 5,000 acres of Monterey pine and cypress on the other. Homes range from oceanfront estates on 17-Mile Drive and fairway residences at the Lodge to forested retreats high above Monterey Bay, all under the 93953 zip code.

Few places on earth combine this much natural beauty with this much prestige. Pebble Beach is home to some of the most famous golf in the world, a century of landmark architecture, and a community where the gate and the forest guarantee a level of privacy that's hard to find this close to a town. Properties here are held for generations, and the best of them trade hands quietly.

A century of Pebble Beach

The Rumsen Ohlone lived along this coast long before the Spanish arrived. The modern story begins in 1919, when Samuel F.B. Morse bought the Del Monte Forest and opened The Lodge at Pebble Beach and Pebble Beach Golf Links the same year. Morse shaped Pebble Beach as a planned private community, and his vision still defines it: large lots, protected forest and the ocean kept front and center.

In the 1920s, Cypress Point Club and Monterey Peninsula Country Club opened, and grand Spanish Colonial and Mediterranean estates began rising along the shore. The Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance started in 1950 and is now the most prestigious classic car show in the world. Pebble Beach Golf Links has hosted the U.S. Open six times, with a seventh scheduled for 2027. Every February, the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am brings tour players and celebrities to the same fairways residents look out on.

Pebble Beach neighborhoods

The Lodge This is the heart of Pebble Beach. Estates here front Carmel Bay, Stillwater Cove and the fairways of Pebble Beach Golf Links, a short walk from The Lodge, The Beach & Tennis Club and the resort's restaurants.

Country Club West On the ocean side of Monterey Peninsula Country Club, homes sit near the club's courses and the coastline of 17-Mile Drive, with the Pacific, the dunes and some of the most dramatic sunsets on the peninsula close at hand.

Country Club East On the inland side of Monterey Peninsula Country Club, fairway and forest homes offer quiet streets, mature trees and easy access to both the club and Pacific Grove.

Central Pebble Beach Deep in the Del Monte Forest, around Spyglass Hill and Poppy Hills, homes sit on wooded lots with more privacy and room to spread out, minutes from the coast and the Lodge.

Upper Forest / Sheppard's Knoll / Ocean Pines The higher elevations of the forest offer pine-framed views over Monterey Bay, quieter roads and quick access to Monterey and Highway 68.

Living in Pebble Beach

A typical day might begin with a walk along the shoreline trail or a ride from the Pebble Beach Equestrian Center. A round follows at one of the peninsula's legendary courses, and the day ends with lunch at The Beach & Tennis Club or a sunset at The Links at Spanish Bay as the bagpiper plays. Beyond the gates, Carmel-by-the-Sea is five minutes away and Monterey and Pacific Grove about ten. Robert Louis Stevenson School is right inside the forest.

For buyers

Pebble Beach properties aren't priced like homes anywhere else. Frontage on the ocean or a famous fairway, the size and privacy of the lot, the architecture and pedigree of the home, and club memberships can matter more than square footage. We know these properties individually, including the ones that trade without ever reaching the market. Ask us about homes that are discreetly available.

For sellers

The buyer for a significant Pebble Beach estate is almost always global, and rarely browsing. Reaching them takes cinematic storytelling, worldwide distribution and complete discretion. Through Engel & Völkers' Private Office, we connect Pebble Beach properties with qualified private buyers around the world, on-market or off.
