Diamond in the rough! Located in the Aptos hills on a private 4 acre lot, this home is yearning for your attention. The floor plan is lovely and set up for entertaining with access to the outdoors from every room. Formal living & dining areas that open to the large sunny deck, make for a great place to host guests. There is a spacious primary suite with walk-in closet that opens to the "office" that could double as the 4th bedroom. Highlighted by vaulted ceilings, a plethora of windows providing an abundance of light, this could be the diamond you are looking for with a bit of sweat equity!!
