About This Home
As of May 2021This is a rare 1-bedroom condo that lives like a 2-bedroom. Seller has installed beautiful, custom room dividers that easily convert the living room into a second bedroom in just seconds! This flexible configuration is enhanced by a murphy bed that folds flat against the wall when not in use (murphy bed is negotiable). This complex is a well maintained, gated community that includes an inviting pool. Additionally, this downtown property enjoys lovely views in all directions and is a quick bus ride to ucsc. The unit is super desirable in that it's a top-floor, end-unit with no common walls to another unit other than the one below. Other highlights include new vinyl clad-dual pane windows and slider, rich hardwood flooring, custom lighting, new interior doors, fresh paint and more. Your even a short stroll to all the amenities the downtown has to offer that include shopping, entertainment venues, dining and gourmet coffee shops.. There's even a private gate to the River Walk Bike Path.
