This is the opportunity you've been waiting for in Watsonville! This very attractively priced home is located just outside the city limits on a gorgeous sun-drenched parcel. It has been lovingly and thoughtfully updated with a modern design incorporating classic elements that is an absolute stunner. You will love the fresh paint, clean lines, the warmth of polished oak floors, and the abundance of light pouring in the newer double pane windows. But don't let the affordable price fool you: this home is no fixer upper, having been renovated with newer wiring, plumbing, roof, kitchen, bathrooms, and much more. There's more to this property than just the house - the back yard is a veritable garden of Eden, with numerous fruit trees, surrounded by deer fence to keep the harvest safe. There's also a detached 10x12 office / studio which is a great place to work from home if that's your thing, or would make a wonderful playhouse for kids or perhaps a bedroom for guests. This home represents the best value in Watsonville this year, and it will not last - so make an appointment to get in to see it without delay!
This charming single-level home is a pleasure to come home to. With views to the mountains and valley, the backyard is a little paradise. Large living room with hardwood floors and a brick fireplace. The family room has large windows that look out to the back patio and valley. Two of the three bedrooms have been combined to make a larger bedroom with a sitting room. Close to Pinto Lake.
