About this home

Peaceful & Serene Santa Cruz Mountain Retreat, nestled among the redwoods and just minutes to Scotts Valley, Hwy 17 and a short 20 minute drive to Los Gatos. This custom home is situated on just over 3 acres of natural woodland and forest. Options and choices abound, shop or dine in Scotts Valley or head down Granite Creek to De Laveaga Park, Seabright or downtown. The architectural elegance of this home is enhanced by the inviting entry walkway leading to the welcoming glass accented natural oak front door. Upon entering, you will appreciate the spacious open floorplan, abundant natural light, soaring vaulted ceilings, and stately curved oak staircase leading to the upstairs primary suite and upstairs deck. This is a unique and special home where the indoor living area flows seamlessly into the outdoors, all the while sharing the forest and the trees and natures gifts with the fortunate family or individual who chooses to make this property their own.

Agriculture

The purposes of the A Agriculture Zone District are to encourage and provide for noncommercial agricultural uses, such as family farming and animal raising, and to allow limited commercial agricultural activities, on the small amounts of agricultural land remaining in the County which are not designated as commercially suitable, but which still constitute a productive natural resource; to provide for agricultural uses of a higher intensity in rural areas than those allowed in the RA Residential Agricultural Zone District where such use is compatible with the surrounding land uses and the environmental constraints of the land; to maintain options for a diversity of farm operations; to implement the agricultural preservation policy of Chapter 16.50 SCCC; and to maintain productive open space and rural character in the County.
