Remarks

This home has AMAZING potential with great bones. The kitchen flows nicely into the generous living room. There are two primary suites upstairs, both with en-suite bathrooms. One of the primary suites has a balcony with views of the greenspace out back. A half bath off of the kitchen is perfect for entertaining. The downstairs area is torn up, but there is a bedroom, bathroom, kitchenette/wet bar area, living space, and sliding glass doors to the backyard. This could be perfect for an ADU or mother-in-law space. With a little TLC, this property will be a standout in one of the best neighborhoods in Santa Cruz. There is a County park, beautiful hiking trails (that connect to access the Chaminade Resort), and a highly-rated elementary school. Residents of this neighborhood have pride in ownership, and it shows.
