    What's special

    Spanish-style stuccoPrivate patioWarm textures
    There is something quietly special about Centennial Street. Mornings begin with sea air drifting through open windows. Evenings carry the distant sound of seals along the coast. 5-mins to Lighthouse Field & the wharf. This is Westside Santa Cruz living at its most natural. The home was originally built by a contractor for his own residence, later owned by a world-renowned installation artist, using powerful visual narratives through multi-screen installations. Spanish-style stucco, warm textures, & an easy flow connect the entry, dining, & kitchen spaces. Southern-facing patios bring sunlight into the primary bedroom, while rear living areas settle into golden evening light. Birds of paradise & palms frame the front garden, with curated lighting creating a soft glow indoors & out. The primary suite opens to a private patio for sunrise coffee. A permitted detached ADU with its own yard provides flexible living or rental potential. The drive-through garage with backyard access, & a 240V electric charger. The street itself remains remarkably quiet, with little neighbor noise & a calm residential feel. Warm, organic, & deeply livable. A home shaped by light, ocean air, & everyday ease.
