Remarks

Capitola is rich in central coast history & continues to be a vacation destination for beach living & foodies paradise. This home is 1 of the oldest in Capitola built in 1860. A lot has changed but its location is just a few blocks to the esplanade, dangerously close to Gayles Bakery & close to HWY 1. This 2 bed.1.5 bath home retains its charm from the past years. But, the Dutch front door, thats where the modern conveniences begin. New wall electric system, new plumbing, thermal pane windows, insulated walls & floors, & hickory flooring bring this home to 2026. The crowning glory of the home is an awe inspiring chefs kitchen that features walnut cabinetry, Wolf gas range, glass door subzero refrigerator/freezer, Shaw farmhouse clay sink, island covered by soapstone countertops & handmade tile backsplash. Generous dining area & custom lighting from artisan Roys Lighting. Upstairs has lots of dormer windows & hickory flooring. Shower & tile in the bathroom complimented by the natural light from the windows. Outside is tastefully landscaped. Spa & outdoor shower & privacy fenced yard. Newly constructed 2 car garage provides parking & storage space. Above the garage 575 sq. ft. 1 bed.1 bath ADU with a kitchenette & living area or a rental for income. Peaks of the Ocean! Ready Now!
