About this home

Discover your own slice of coastal heaven in this renovated Shorebirds residence at prestigious Pajaro Dunes. This rare gem offers an unmatched sanctuary where nature's grandest shows unfold before your eyes majestic whales breaching in the distance, playful dolphins dancing through the waves, and the golden sun melting into the horizon in a dazzling daily spectacle. Gloriously positioned on the exclusive north end, this haven captures sweeping western vistas of Santa Cruz's coastline, with an enchanting blend of windswept grasslands and pristine beach stretching as far as the eye can see. Unlike other units, this private retreat feels wonderfully secluded your daily life framed by endless ocean views and untouched coastal landscapes rather than neighboring buildings. Lovingly renovated a decade ago and used only sparingly since, this 2 bedroom 2 bath retreat has vaulted ceilings in the living room, with a loft, the perfect hideaway for up to three young adventurers. . Located near the Lagoon house, there are winding nature trails calling to explorers, while tennis and pickleball courts await active residents.
