Great Things Home is a rare shopping experience, where sumptuous antiques and new furnishings come together to transform any space from the ordinary to the extraordinary.

New to Monterey’s famed Cannery Row, following a 35-year tenure on Ocean Avenue in Carmel, Great Things Home specializes in fine antiques, home furnishings and accessories, as well as being a full service design center.

At Great Things Home, the personal touch and discriminating eyes of the owners provide centuries old treasures from the manor houses, country homes and inns of Western Europe.  The same passion for fine quality extends to the owners’ selection of new soft furnishings and accessories, with a particular eye to comfort and function, as well as beauty.  The seamless blending of antique buffets, armoires, tables and chairs with luscious new furnishings provides endless possibilities for creating unique and beautiful spaces that work well with today’s lifestyle.

Wondrous finds at Great Things Home might include an 18^th century Panetiere (a French bread cupboard), or a spectacular 19^th century English chest-on-stand, crafted of walnut and walnut burl.  Such pieces exhibit woods and craftsmanship of a bygone era, and will elevate any space into something special.

To complement the beautiful antiques, Great Things Home is proud to feature the Pearson line of custom upholstery, Casa Fina Tableware, Agraria boutique fragrances, bejeweled picture frames by L’Object, Stonewall Kitchen delicacies and an interesting line of gift books, just to name a few.  Exceptional Tiffany-style lamps by a noted California artist will also be featured exclusively at Great Things Home.

We invite you to visit us in our new location on Cannery Row, to find those great things that will make your home as special and unique as you are.
