Historical Significance In the history of Pacific Grove, there has never been a more significant estate than Trimmer Hill, the residence built by Dr. Oliver S. Trimmer. Dr. Trimmer was the first mayor of Pacific Grove, a Good Samaritan that gave free medical care to the residents there, and the first president of the Bank of Pacific Grove. His contributions helped grow Pacific Grove into a thriving and desirable place to live. This exquisite estate was also the residence of Knut Hoveden, whose Hoveden Cannery helped create the longest running sardine industry in Cannery Row before its conversion to the Monterey Bay Aquarium in 1973. Of all the Monterey Peninsula estates listed on the National Register, this is the only estate currently used as a private residence.
Refined Elegance A marvel of materials and workmanship, this Victorian estate is not only an important piece of local history, it’s also a luxurious testament to the pride for which Pacific Grove homes are known. A multitude of different hardwoods and exotic materials can be found throughout the home, and all have been lovingly restored and cared for to preserve the essence of the builder’s original vision. While much of the estate is unchanged from its initial construction, several areas have been updated with modern convenience and elegance. The gourmet kitchen features a Thermador gas range and oven with indoor grill, Subzero refrigerator and butchers block countertops. A sunroom just off the kitchen offers exceptional natural light for a workout area or office space.

With six bedrooms and six baths, the expansive 5476 square foot estate provides multiple configuration possibilities and is ideal for large or multi-generational families.

The large Master Suite features built-in shelving and cabinets, a sitting area with ocean views, and a dry sauna.

Lower Level Apartment A one bedroom apartment on the ground floor offers Au Pair opportunities or rental income. The estate’s common areas each have their own unique materials, from the tooled elephant hide wainscoting in the formal dining room to the linen-lined walls depicting the Voyage en Chine in the luxurious turret room. The two fireplaces in the common areas each have their own style as well, with intricately carved hardwood mantelpieces and custom tile work.
