Commute to Silicon Valley without giving up the peace and quiet of the Santa Cruz Mountains. This buildable parcel already has an existing Advantex engineered septic system, established retaining walls, and PG & E utilities at the street, so the heavy lifting is done. The lot previously supported a 1,700 sq ft home and is ready for its next chapter. Enjoy waking up to fresh mountain air and birds chirping, then cruise down the road to local favorite the Sawmill for a cold beer and a great burger.
