    What's special

    Softwood floorsKnotty pine walls
    Located on the delectable corner of Ice Cream Grade & Candy Lane, this fixer is a sweet deal! Close to Bonny Doon School & a few hundred ft from Bonny Doon Ecologic Reserve, with EZ access to UCSC, North Coast beaches and all SC offers. Enjoy Bonny Doon living in this 2BR, 1BA home. Built in 1952 w/ a simple 736 ft plan, knotty pine walls in the K & LR areas complement the softwood floors in the BRs to give the whole house a warm and comfy feeling. The 2 parcels are flat and totally usable. The well is a gusher at 9.5 GPM, & the septic passed easily. The decks need work, likely the largest issue to resolve. The kitchen is original; build your dream without paying for someone else's, only to remove theirs to install YOUR perfect kitchen; a blank canvas! The exterior is stucco, a fire-resistant bonus. A carport & a small shop for projects and big toys. Boats and quads have all rested here between adventures. The 2 parcels of nearly 2 acres allow lots of garden and outdoor activity space. This area was not hit by the CZU fires; the flora looks like it has for decades! Enter the serene property via the flag lot to a full circular drive around a small reflecting/fish pond. This home definitely needs TLC, but may qualify for a conventional loan.
