About this home

Exceptional opportunity in the heart of Watsonville's prime agricultural corridor. Approximately 9.3± acres featuring a 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence and productive organic farmland currently leased to Lakeside Organic Gardens through July 2028, offering built-in income and long-term stability. The property presents level, usable acreage well-suited for row crops, berries, or a variety of agricultural uses typical to the Pajaro Valley region. The existing home provides comfortable living or potential rental income while preserving flexibility for future improvements or owner-user occupancy. Ideally located with convenient access to Highway 1, local packing houses, and coastal markets, this parcel combines investment potential with lifestyle appeal in one of Santa Cruz County's most desirable farming areas. A rare offering for growers, investors, or those seeking a legacy agricultural holding with income in place. Buyer to verify all details regarding land use, water, and lease terms.
