A Santa Cruz 'catch' in a fabulous location, this one-of-a-kind, impeccable Santa Cruz villa-style home feels at once very private while only a stone's throw to the beach, West Cliff trail, Lighthouse Field and other local treasures. A well-planned south-facing layout takes advantage of sunlight from an abundance of windows, soaring high ceilings, a balcony off the spacious primary bedroom suite, and is ripe to explore solar possibilities on the durable tile roof. The ground floor office could easily transform into a 4th bedroom. Multiple french doors from both dining and living areas beckon outside to the handsome wood deck and beautifully landscaped yards creating the quintessential indoor/outdoor access to nature so desirable in California. This is the place to pick up your morning newspaper and enjoy a beverage in one of the gardens while the fountains take you away. Lovingly lived in for 25 years, this gem is ready to move right in to and jumpstart a blissful new life by the sea.
