What's special

Do you need extended living- This is a 3 Bedroom+ 1 bath AND a 2 bedroom + 1 bath set up like a duplex. Buy it with a friend, other family members (aging parents/ adult siblings), or live in one side and rent the other! Sellers are working with county and architect to finalize it as a single family with ADU. But so many options: build a spec home on this HUGE lot or make it a Single family home again! This Live Oak midtown location is awesome and so easy to get to. Two single-level homes for the price of one. The expansive lot provides flexibility for redevelopment, expansion, or outdoor living enhancements. Ideal for those seeking a project with upside, this property is being offered as-is (cash only) or wait for the red tag to be lifted and finance it. Either way it presents a unique opportunity to add value in a sought-after neighborhood close to beaches, shopping, and all that Santa Cruz has to offer. Work completion expected mid July - August, 2026
