SANTA CRUZ

Let's start with the obvious: whoever designed this house refused to waste a single ocean view. Every room was thoughtfully positioned to capture the water. Sitting in the living room? Ocean. Cooking in the kitchen? Ocean. Gathered around the dining table? Still ocean. Large windows pull the coastline into the home so the views are part of everyday life. The kitchen & dining area may have the best seats in the house. Cooking dinner here means watching the waves roll in while the sky slowly shifts toward sunset. High-end appliances, a wine fridge & thoughtful upgrades make the space as functional as it is beautiful. Step out onto the spacious deck & the view opens up even more. It's perfect for morning coffee, evening wine, or simply letting the sound of the ocean do its thing. When you're ready for the sand, private steps lead down toward the beach. The Point is just down the street ready for some surf. Another rare bonus: after nearly two years of work, Coastal Commission approval has been secured to re-stack the shoreline rocks, something many coastal homes never get. And yes sunsets here are exactly as good as you're hoping they are.

Just to start with, this house appears to have sunk into the non-compacted, non-engineered lot; there is very little crawlspace. I think it needs to be lifted onto a new foundation. Then, everything else needs to be fixed, also. Bathrooms, kitchens (yes, there are two), floors, roof, plumbing, fences, landscaping-everything needs a bit of work, or more. The good news? It has an oversized lot, about 1/4 acre. It's a nice neighborhood. You might be able to add on to this lot with either another house, an ADU or additional unit. It has city water, sewer, gas, electricity, a fireplace, a huge front yard and a very large backyard, the roof does not leak, at this moment, the neighbors seem great, in town location with shopping all around. Gas stove, gas water heater, wall heaters, free standing fireplace, covered deck in the back yard and a loft with stairs for an extra place to sleep. You can walk to restaurants and/or the Coddingtown Shopping center. It's currently configured as a duplex, but easy to convert back to a SFD. There are no reports, going through probate.
