Property Description

Just moments from the Santa Cruz main beach and stunning coastline, this spacious condo is tucked within a gated community at the end of a road, offering an exceptional blend of privacy, lifestyle, and location. Featuring the rare advantage of two private upstairs suites, a versatile flex space, soaring ceilings and a skylight to allow natural light to flood in. The peaceful grounds, an indoor pool, racquetball court, and two dedicated parking spaces add to the appeal. Step outside, past the gate, to an expansive park with a playground, basketball court and room for family and dogs to enjoy. Follow the winding path toward the coastline and take in views of the iconic Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, fresh ocean air and relaxed coastal atmosphere. From here, it's roughly a 10-minute walk in one direction to toes in the sand, and 10 minutes the other direction for a hot coffee and delicious pastry at The Buttery. This property is a win-win no matter which direction you turn. So whether you want a full-time residence, an investment opportunity or your own coastal weekend retreat, this rare offering reflects the relaxed coastal energy, natural beauty, and easygoing lifestyle that make Santa Cruz so uniquely special!
