About This Home

As of May 2025

A rare gem in Soquel, this 4-bed, 3-bath home has all the bells and whistles! The spacious great room features sliders that open to a professionally landscaped backyard with two fountains, a pond, decking, an outdoor kitchen with a sink, grill, and pizza oven, plus a sunken hot tub, outdoor shower, gas fireplace, and fire pit. Kids will love the monkey bars and play hut, while practical perks include covered back parking with an electric gate, two sheds, and irrigated raised garden beds. The fully redwood-fenced yard boasts night lighting, and the family room shines with venting skylights, radiant flooring, and La Cantina doors. Indoor storage/workshop, on-demand water, and a Tesla charger in the front drivewayplus the convenience of back alley access. Yes, we thought of everything!
