    What's special

    Beach home alert! Don't miss this special ocean-view home tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac with large front and back yards and exceptional privacy. Perfect as a full-time home, weekend getaway, or surf retreat, it's just blocks from Santa Cruz's iconic beaches. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home features a reverse floor plan designed to capture ocean views. Vaulted ceilings and skylights brighten the living room, dining area, and primary suite. The open kitchen, dining, and living areas flow to a spacious view deck, while the cozy fireplace adds warmth on cooler evenings. The primary suite includes a private deck overlooking the backyard. Outside, enjoy a spa, patio, outdoor shower, lush lawn, mature plum tree, and perimeter trees for privacy. A detached 10' x 12' studio is ideal for a home office, art studio, or hobby room. A rare coastal opportunity that won't last long!
