Imagine waking up surrounded by towering trees, where morning light filters through the branches and your commute to Highway 17 takes only five minutes. This refreshed mountain home offers the rare blend of privacy & convenience; sunlit living spaces through south-facing windows below, & quiet, restful bedrooms tucked away above. With southern exposure, every level of the garden thrives, not just for beauty but for purpose, a true paradise for those who love to see things grow. Here, adventure begins at your doorstep. River swimming holes, disc golf courses, & hiking trails don't require weekend road trips, they're simply part of your everyday landscape. Scotts Valley is only ten minutes away, downtown Santa Cruz just fifteen, and Los Gatos twenty. Families find comfort knowing Happy Valley Elementary offers the charm of a small public school with the reputation of a private education. Inside, modern upgrades make life easy: a new furnace, gas fireplace, improved water systems, & thoughtful landscaping. This is mountain living without compromise, tranquility woven seamlessly with valley access. A place where your search for balance finally ends.

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.
