About this home

Located in the heart of the vibrant Lower West Side, this stunning modern home was thoughtfully rebuilt in 2022 with the concept of a forever home in mind. It is bright and airy, showcasing green systems, contemporary finishes, and rich hardwood floors. The inviting covered front porch sets the tone for this charming property. Inside, the cozy gas stove adds warmth and ambiance. The home offers three beds and two baths, plus a versatile finished attic room that serves as a 4th bedroom, office, art studio, or playroom. The primary suite provides privacy, a large walk-in closet, and a stylish ensuite bath. Owned solar (NEM 2.0) and efficient heat pumps provide year-round comfort and energy savings. The private backyard oasis includes a hot tub, fire pit area, raised garden beds, and an outdoor shower crafted from the home's original wood framing. A spacious storage shed, space for your future garage, a practical mudroom, and indoor laundry add storage and convenience. Situated in a fantastic community, steps from the rail trail and a casual walk to New Leaf Market, The Verve, Manresa, Bantam, Swift Street Market, Humble Sea, local wineries, and more! Close to beaches, West Cliff Drive, UCSC, and scenic bike paths, it's the perfect blend of coastal living and neighborhood charm.
