Discover a rare opportunity to build your vision in one of Brookdales most magical settings, a serene creekside parcel surrounded by towering redwoods and rich history. This 0.27-acre property once held a 2,400 sq. ft., 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home with a 900 sq. ft. garage, built in 1907 and lost in the 2020 CZU Lightning Complex fire. Clear Creek runs directly through the land, just like it famously flows through the historic dining hall of the Brookdale Lodge! The site offers a captivating and truly one-of-a-kind backdrop for a future home or retreat.
Utilities including water, electricity, and natural gas already connected. This is a fantastic head start for rebuilding. Many fire-affected properties in the area have pursued streamlined recovery permitting, and this parcel may offer similar opportunities. Buyers are encouraged to explore buildability and permitting options directly with Santa Cruz County Planning during their due diligence.
Whether you are restoring a historic footprint or envisioning something entirely new, this property offers peaceful surroundings, historic character, and rare potential all just moments from Ben Lomond's quaint town center, local markets, coffee shops, hiking trails, and coastal access.
