About This Home
As of July 2022Just 5 minutes to New Brighton Beach, 7 minutes to Capitola village, 5 minutes to Cabrillo College & 10 minutes to the trails of Nisene Marks Park, this property has an IDEAL central Santa Cruz County location. The main 3 bd 1.5 ba farm home with wrap around, enclosed sun room/porch was originally the Harvey West family home. Built in 1880, the structure retains its farmhouse character & has been lovingly restored with beautiful textures & surfaces. In 1990 a 2nd structure was added, which consists of a 2nd living unit + a partial garage & huge storage room. The 2nd home has a bedroom & bathroom/laundry room on the ground floor with a sun-drenched, spacious, open-beamed, high ceiling great room on the upper level. That's not all! There is also a large detached office plus an outdoor kitchen, bar & shower plus a full outdoor bathroom & large shed! This special property has so much to offer! You must see it to appreciate the artistic restoration
