About this home

More than meets the eye! This property has a sweet cottage tucked in back that has 2bed and 2ba, with a bonus 2 room detached office, a sweet private yard and patio area. It is handicap accessible and light and bright. Every one of these homes has open beam ceilings and tons of natural light. 2 units have private yards. Each unit has it's own laundry. The owner has maintained the property and done all the unseen improvements, newer heaters, paint, carpets, windows and Plantation Shutters, upgraded bathrooms and more. This location can not be beat! Quiet and private, but close to Beaches, Parks, downtown, UCSC and all the wonders that Santa Cruz has to offer. The Main house was owner occupied has redone bathrooms and is very nice, right now there is a caretaker who will be moving out. One unit is vacant and the last unit is currently rented with VERY low rents but great tenants. This is a pride of ownership property.
