Unique Hillside Property with Cabin + Main House on Ocean Street Extension!
Located in one of Santa Cruz's most sought after enclaves, this property offers two structures: A charming 2 bedroom 2 full bath original cabin, built first and nestled into the slope. A larger main house, with 3 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms was added later, with elevated views and a tree house like feel. Surrounded by mature trees, the setting is quiet, private, and filled with natural light. The land was lovingly used for organic gardening, fruit trees, and keeping chickens, making it ideal for buyers who value space to grow, create, or live close to nature. Summer time you feel community connection as the echo of the roaring camp train announces its arrival into and departing town. The home needs updates and repairs, but the craftsmanship is solid and the potential is exceptional. Whether you're an investor, builder, or homeowner with vision, this is an opportunity to restore a Santa Cruz original on a beautiful piece of land. Excellent multi generational living or rental income potential.
