Country Home, Nestled behind a locked gate up a long drive just off Encinal Street, this hidden forest retreat sits on 13 private acres bordering Pogonip Park. From the back door, you can step directly onto the beloved Spring Street Trail and wander into miles of hiking, towering redwoods, open meadows, and peaceful solitude. With no visible neighbors, the property feels like your own private sanctuary in the woods yet you're still conveniently close to Joby, Kirby School, downtown Santa Cruz, and UCSC. We're offering a spacious primary bedroom with a private bathroom in a beautiful newer home shared with a professional couple and their 12-year-old son. The room features large south-facing windows overlooking redwood trees and a plum orchard, filling the space with warm natural light throughout the day. The views from the property are truly special rolling fields, giant redwood groves, and lofty forest scenery in every direction. The home itself is only three years old, so everything feels fresh, clean, and modern. The kitchen is a dream to cook in, with a large island, oversized stainless steel sink, giant stainless refrigerator, dishwasher, and a wonderful propane burner stove for anyone who enjoys cooking. This is an ideal space for someone who appreciates nature, quiet living, and the feeling of being tucked away in the forest while still being close to town. We're looking for one person only who is respectful, grounded, and a good fit for a peaceful shared home environment. Please reply via email with a little about yourself, what you're looking for, and anything you'd like us to know. We look forward to meeting you.
