    What's special

    Positioned perfectly just on the edge of Santa Cruz Gardens, this eye-popping, lovingly remodeled one-level home has everything you want and need, plus open space views instead of neighbors behind you. Warm and welcoming, open design nicely connects a gourmet kitchen to the living and dining areas for easy entertaining. High-quality stainless steel appliances including Bertazzoni gas range, Ceasarstone counter tops, center island, large walk-in pantry. Adjoining dining area big enough for the Holidays w/toasty fireplace for ambiance. Double pane windows, laundry rm, outdoor sink/workspace area, porcelain tile floors w/radiant heat, newer carpets, doors, hardware and LED lighting. Easy access to generous back patio w/serene views of the trees and wildlife. Enclosed courtyard with nice brick work shelters you from the street. Santa Cruz Gardens is one of those rare finds, with a community pool, park, elementary school, nearby trails and quick access to Hwy 1. This is what I call HOME!

    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
