A true Santa Cruz charmer that's centrally located, easy walking distance for the food, wine, beer enthusiasts and only a bike ride away from locals favorite beaches and surf spots. This 2 story craftsman offers 3 bedrooms and an office that can serve as a 4th bedroom. The bright, natural light showcases mountain and city views that stretch over the Westside. Oodles of vintage charm that one would expect from a house of this era...Did someone say built-ins? Yes, please!! Enjoy the morning sun or sunset off your master bedroom patio or covered front porch. Ample backyard space to garden, play games, and a deck to entertain or relax with family & friends for hours. Of course, this wouldn't be complete without an outdoor shower to rinse the daily surf and sand. And if the interior space wasn't enough, there's a detached artist studio or zoom room! GREAT, QUIET street with no through traffic from Mission St. Your beach home is ready!
