About This Home

A ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME beachfront estate awaits. This ICONIC coastal property sits directly on the sand at the end of Las Olas Drive - Spanish for "The Waves" on a private, gated road within SeaCliff Park. One of the largest beachfront properties in Santa Cruz County, it offers TOTAL PRIVACY and panoramic views of Monterey Bay (you can see WHALES and DOLPHINS cruising by - it's AMAZING!). With 5 bedrooms, a chef's kitchen, home theater, and a large wraparound deck, there's room to gather, relax, and live well. Floor-to-ceiling glass - including a dramatic curved window in the living room-gives the feeling of being aboard a luxury yacht. A mahogany-paneled office, compass rose inlay aligned to TRUE NORTH, extremely high quality cabinetry from England, and many other unique architectural details create value that will last. Enjoy fresh air, QUALITY OF LIFE in a setting that promotes wellness, walkability, and connection to nature. Though it feels worlds away, this peaceful retreat is close to everything - Downtown Santa Cruz, Capitola, Silicon Valley, San Francisco, and major airports. The private gate, large property, 3-car garage, and LOTS of GUEST PARKING make this home a place for all of your friends and family to enjoy the very best of Northern California coastal living!
