Tranquility abounds at this sanctuary property. Situated on 2.5 faithfully thinned acres with filtered views of the San Lorenzo Valley, you'll find a beautiful three bedroom/two bathroom home with a wrap-around sun deck. The great room has a wall of windows with beautiful views, sunshine, and an abundance of natural light. Both bathrooms have been updated with quartz showers, the interior has been freshly painted, and the entire home is appointed with warm frame-and-panel stained fir doors! One bedroom & one bathroom with a walk-in shower are located downstairs. Every room in this home has a lovely view of nature. Surrounded by the beauty of the outdoors, this property offers a unique opportunity to garden & embrace outdoor living. The current owners have been very fire-wise and have cleared the underbrush on the full 2.5 acres, created firebreaks, and installed hardscape to protect this lovely home and property. A back-up generator with a transfer switch at the electrical panel is an added bonus. Lots of usable land for an ADU, a garage, and room for two horses. Only 3 miles to Bonny Doon Elementary School, Less than 10 miles to UCSC, and 40 miles to Los Gatos. The San Vincente Redwood trails, the Bonny Doon Ecological Reserve, and Fall Creek trails, are all very close!

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
