    What's special

    Adorable Bungalow with a bit of Victorian flair with upgrades along the way. Charm oozes and there's loads of character! A yard of trees, plants and is a Santa Cruz entertainment delight. Outdoor real stone fireplace, water feature with soothing trickling water makes you want to hurry home! Large, spacious master bedroom with walk-in closet and master bath adjoining. Inside laundry adjoins the second bath with a very deep tub and shower over. Property is zoned C2, yet this extraordinary residential property has been "home" over the years...go figure! An easement from 38th leads to the home situated at the back of the driveway. If you'd like a small home business, this might work well. There's an outside shower if you've come home from the beach feeling somewhat "sandy"...Upstairs attic room has no closet, but an armoire has been used for clothing. And there are other nooks and crannies for storage. This is an "up and coming" neighborhood, with new developments coming soon!

    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
