Just 3 minutes from town, yet feeling worlds away, discover a rare 3+ acre property offering privacy, abundant sun, redwoods, and incredible flexibility, all while remaining minutes from Cabrillo College, Highway 1, and approximately 10 minutes to the beach. Two homes include a spacious 3-bedroom, two-level main residence and a separate permitted 2-bedroom, 1-bath ADU, ideal for multigenerational living, rental income, guests, or extended family. The light-filled main home features soaring ceilings, skylights, nature views, and wheelchair accessibility from the exterior to both levels. The main level offers a primary suite with walk-in closet and jetted tub, chefs kitchen with island, gas range and stainless appliances, radiant heat, polished concrete floors, cozy living room, large laundry room, and abundant storage. Upstairs are two additional bedrooms, a second kitchen, separate interior and exterior access, and private balcony. Set apart from the main home, the original 1930s permitted 2-bedroom ADU offers vintage charm and tremendous potential. Restore, reimagine, or enjoy as-is. Fruit trees, including apple and avocado, an orchard walkway, and open space for gardening or play complete this unique property.
