Rare Santa Cruz Opportunity: Expansive Lot on a Quiet Dead-End Street!!!
Tucked at the end of a peaceful dead-end street, this rare 14,898 sq. ft. lot offers the kind of space and privacy that's hard to find in Santa Cruz. Enjoy a prime location just minutes from the beach and close to shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences.
The existing 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers 1,378 sq. ft. of living space and is in poor condition, making it an ideal canvas for a full rehab or a fresh start. Bring your vision: restore and reimagine the current home, or build the custom residence you've always wanted, with the potential to add an ADU for guests, family, or rental income (buyer to verify with the City/County).
With room to spread out and endless possibilities, this is a rare chance to create something special in one of coastal California's most sought-after communities. Investors, builders, and dreamers, come see the potential!
