About This Home

As of August 2021

A Mediterranean oasis set amongst the redwoods and surrounded by vineyards, this 3800 sq ft 5 bed, 4 bath home has everything you've been dreaming of! 3 miles/7 minutes from Aptos center, just far enough to be beyond the coastal fog. A private scenic driveway meets you. Greeted with the warming sight of the large chandelier visible through the windows of the 20+ foot stairwell, you pull up to the 3-car attached garage. Entering the foyer, a well proportioned open-plan lower level consists of the dining room, two expansive family rooms with fireplaces and substantial chefs kitchen. The 5th bedroom, bathroom and laundry room complete the lower level. Take one of the three patio doors out to the breathtaking south-facing back yard. Built to entertain, the heated pool with cascading hot-tub scream summer fun, flanked on both sides with large areas of lawn to relax or play, multiple loungers, seating areas, an Italian-styled walled patio. Wait! This isnt a yard, its a resort!
