BE SURPRISED & CHARMED!

This graceful and classy home sits above and apart from the bustles of Town and enjoys expansive views of the Santa Cruz Mountains and the western sky. It was built in the 1920’s, an earlier period of promise and prosperity. When Americans followed dreams westward, plied their boundless ingenuity and optimism, and built new lives in fine neighborhoods on the outskirts of booming towns.

Surely, such dreams and opportunities are as timeless as this quintessentially California home! Its graceful, stucco façade, hipped red tile roof, centered entrance and terrace, symmetrical palms and curved pathways are indigenous elements. Generous windows invite sunlight and humans to linger in the beautifully proportioned living and formal dining rooms. Pleasing arches and curves grace doors, ceilings, the fireplace and built-in cabinets. The handsome wood floors are prominent and striking, but take care not to miss the classic doors, fixtures, switches, cabinetry, stove, farmhouse sink and tidy basement.

An approximately 264 square foot permitted bonus room (with a half bath) and one-car garage provide modern-day flexible space. The low-maintenance, drip-irrigated grounds as well as apple and citrus trees are a delight. And the tidiest of courtyards invites sunning, soaking or sitting by the fire.
