About This Home

As of May 2022

Cute 2 bedroom, 1 bath house in Aptos on the ocean side of Hwy 1 - And its cute! Sunlight pours into this small and darling home. The kitchen and bath were updated a few years ago. The open floor plan and cozy wood stove makes for a very pleasant space. The wrap around decking and rooftop deck allows for lots of enjoyable outdoor living. Super private, yet not a remote location. Very little traffic on this short, drive-through street with easy freeway access and close to shopping, beach and restaurants of Aptos.
