(Undisclosed Address), Soquel, CA 95073

A truly special 2-bedroom home on almost 5 private acres in the Soquel countryside. It feels a little like having your own private state park right outside your door! The setting is absolutely gorgeous. Sunny open fields and gardens give way to a beautiful forest of giant redwoods and maples, with Soquel Creek making a 180-degree bend through the lower property. Along the creek is a sandy beach beneath the trees, backed by a 100-foot tall sandstone wall covered in ferns. It is an incredibly peaceful place to read, do yoga, have a picnic, sit by the water, or just spend some time outside. Wildlife is part of everyday life here. Deer regularly wander through the property, red-tailed hawks circle overhead, owls call from the trees, and banana slugs appear after the rain. There is a variety of fruit trees throughout the property, along with gardens, open meadow areas, forest, and plenty of quiet places to sit and enjoy the surroundings. The home itself is an approximately 665 sq. ft. downstairs 2-bedroom, 1-bath unit with a full kitchen, wood-look flooring, lots of natural light, and a private patio looking out across the property. Just outside the door is a hammock beneath the trees, with easy access to the shared fields, gardens, forest, creek, and sandy beach area. There is also an additional approximately 200 sq. ft. private storage room directly accessible from the living room, great for bikes, surfboards, camping gear, outdoor equipment, and general storage. Electricity, water, and septic are included in the rent. Off-street parking is included. Pets considered with approval. Comcast internet is available. The property also has a shared backup generator for power outages. This is a unique older rural property with several homes spread across the acreage and a relaxed, friendly, neighborly feel. The owners take a lot of pride in the property, spend time here themselves, and care deeply about preserving what makes it special. We are hoping to find tenants who appreciate that kind of environment and will enjoy and care for it too. Despite the peaceful setting, the property is only about 8 minutes from downtown Soquel, with Capitola and Santa Cruz close by, and about 30 minutes from Los Gatos and easy access to the Bay Area. $3,000/month $3,000 security deposit Month-to-month Available now Message for details and a showing time.
