Tucked among the redwoods along a wide, year-round creek, this property offers a rare combination of privacy, flat usable land, and flexible living space on approximately 1/3 acre. With no homes across the creek looking back, the setting feels like your own private sanctuary. Inside, vaulted ceilings and skylights fill the home with natural light, creating a bright and inviting living space that feels larger than the square footage suggests. The open living, dining, and kitchen area flows out to a sunny deck overlooking the trees and creek below, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection. Recent improvements include a remodeled bathroom, updated appliances, and new washer and dryer. The lower level features a private entrance and adds valuable bonus space with two large rooms, a laundry area with potential kitchenette, and an unfinished bathroom ready for your custom bath, offering great potential for separate living space. The property also includes a detached garage/workshop and a separate storage shed, providing excellent space for projects, storage, or outdoor gear. Conveniently located just minutes to town, this is a great commute location to Santa Cruz or Silicon Valley while still enjoying the peace and beauty of the redwoods.
