Ocean views from Monterey to Santa Cruz from this gated property near La Selva Beach. The photos don't do it justice. Bank-owned home on over 14 acres needs TLC, but has great potential for this price. Rough-hewn redwood inside, open-beamed ceilings, 3 rock fireplaces, and the view make this a special property.
