Tucked beneath the towering redwoods in one of Aptos most beloved pockets, 205 Farr Avenue is a small but mighty three-bedroom retreat where the forest feels like part of the floor plan. Built in 1966, the home offers two bedrooms and a half bath on the ground level, with a third bedroom and full bath on the upper level a flexible layout for guests, a home office, or a little extra breathing room. Skylights in the main living room frame the redwoods overhead, bringing the canopy indoors with shifting light from dawn to dusk. A beautiful porch wraps three-quarters of the home, perfect for coffee in the dappled morning light or quiet evenings under the trees. Many of the homes major systems have been repaired or replaced, including a new main water supply line (2024), new electrical panel, new septic system, newer roof (2011), and retaining wall (2000). Minutes to Seacliff Beach, Rio del Mar, Nisene Marks trails, and Aptos Village. Ready for a new owner to reimagine the space or simply enjoy the simplicity of the beauty that surrounds it.
