Tucked away from busy streets yet centrally located, this lovely home is a relaxing hideaway with a huge .28-acre lot with the potential for an additional house plus ADU minutes from downtown Santa Cruz. Inside, two stylish columns separate the open-plan living and dining space. The kitchen has ample storage and granite countertops. A built-in closet, a private exit, and a convenient laundry room connected to the primary bedroom. Bright back patio overlooking the large yard dotted with thriving foliage. Famous Pacific Ave is blocks away from this home for delicious dining options from Laili to Pizza My Heart, boutique shopping such as Bookshop Santa Cruz, and entertainment such as Landmarks Del Mar Theatre and Santa Cruz Museum of Art & History. Follow the nearby Riverwalk to the beach and Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk for sunbathing, swimming, and some thrill rides!
