About This Home
As of July 2025Live the dream just blocks from the beach in this cozy inviting updated condo. Wake to fresh ocean air, grab your board or your coffee, and be on the sand within minutes. Walk to your favorite cafes, breweries, shops, and coastal trails no car required (but there's a reserved carport if you want one). This well-loved home has been thoughtfully updated over the years with dual-pane windows, newer appliances, laminate flooring, a rebuilt hall closet, and fresh mechanicals like the wall furnace and water heater. Enjoy the ease of single-level living in a small, quiet complex with low dues. Whether you're looking for a dreamy first home, a weekend surf pad, or a place to downsize with style, this is where Santa Cruz living happens: casual, coastal, and entirely walkable/ridable/stroll able. Staged Virtually.
