Not quite a tiny house; a sensible 1 BR, 1 ba 792' home on 10.6 acres, adj. state park land. Fully 4 FLAT acres on south side of driveway, heading toward town and Pineridge. Simple 1 story home sits atop the gently sloped parcel; look over the trees to the open Pacific! Enjoy the sun, the tall, oversized garage, the comfy house and the chance for gardening or planting an orchard at 1,800 feet above the coastal fog. Built by a bachelor with simple tastes, the home is a solid, serene blank canvas. Disappointed when looking at homes where you have to pay for someone elses design decisions you will tear out after you buy? Here you buy a great property without paying retail for someone else's choices. The home is livable as is while you build your dream house, or dress this home up with some easy upgrades for yourself or as an ADU for guests, rental income. Just a short way up Empire Grade from UCSC to privacy, lots of space, and easy access to Santa Cruz & the North Coast beaches.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
