About This Home

As of March 2024

Nestled on over 5 acres in the serene Soquel hills, this is a peaceful and private retreat with minimal noise and ample distance from the nearest neighbor. This spacious home was solidly built in 1992, has 5 beds, 3 baths, and 2,871 sq ft living space. Vaulted open-beamed ceilings with skylights invite natural light. A large kitchen with wood cabinets, stainless appliances, and a walk-in pantry caters to culinary enthusiasts. The sizable laundry room and a wood-burning stove enhance convenience and coziness. With views of redwoods and glimpses of the valley, each vista is picturesque. Multiple decks overlook mature landscaping, a garden area, and a picturesque pool. In addition, there are many fruit trees and a three-story avocado tree that produces fruit twice a year! A workshop/basement area with a separate entrance adds potential for conversion to an ADU. Situated for a great commute, relish in solitude while having easy access to Highway 17 or Old San Jose Road.
