About This Home
Classicly styled Victorian located in the heart of Santa Cruz's downtown historic district. Easily accessible to beaches, downtown, public transportation, restaurants, & culture. The Victorian-era building still maintains some stylistic features, like dentil moldings, decorative trim, patterned siding, high ceilings, transom windows, and ornamentation. The embellished gables lend height and grandeur to the home. There are 3 self-contained units within the building. 1 studio, 1 2bedroom unit, and 1 2-3 bedroom unit. There is a detached garage with laundry facilities for one of the units. Each unit has separate gas and electric meters. Water and garbage is paid for by the property owner. The central location is ideal for any income producing property, but this location is a dream. Close to everything, yet on a quiet Ginkgo tree-lined street. A 3 minute walk to downtown eateries, shops, and parks. A 15 minute walk to beaches and the Santa Cruz Municipal Wharf. Surfing is equally close. For those who need access to UCSC (University of California at Santa Cruz), the bus line is 1 block away!
