About This Home

As of August 2025

Nestled in one of Soquel's most charming neighborhoods, this turnkey 3-bedroom, 2-bath home blends small-town character with modern convenience. Nearly every inch has been updated: designer faucets, statement lighting, hardwood floors, layered recessed lighting, and an open layout connecting living, dining, and kitchen. Cozy evenings await by the reimagined gas fireplace with custom wood surround and moody lighting. The kitchen is a culinary showcase, featuring a spacious island, two-tone cabinetry, custom hardware, designer lighting, stainless appliances, quartz counters, and a sunlit tile backsplash; ideal for cooking and gathering. Both bathrooms are spa-inspired: remodeled with California Faucets, one Duravit soaking tub, custom tile showers and floors, and new vanities. Outside, enjoy low-maintenance landscaping, Trex-style decking, and a Marquis hot tub. New exterior paint, trim, doors, lighting, fencing, driveway, and a newer roof enhance curb appeal. The insulated, finished garage includes built-in cabinetry for storage and workspace. Between the Santa Cruz Mountains and the Pacific, Soquel offers a relaxed vibe, redwoods, cafes, antique shops, parks, wineries, and top-rated Main Street Elementary just moments away.
