This gorgeously updated home is within walking distance of 5 beaches, 2 lagoons, an urban hiking trail, delicious restaurants, & the Live Oak Farmers Market. You’re in the perfect location to get the most out of the Santa Cruz lifestyle, even before stepping through the front door. Inside you’ll fall in love with the kitchen (which may or may not convince you that you can indeed cook like Julia Child). The backyard is also to die for. You’ve heard of landscape, but this is landscaped – you’ll see what we mean.

Imagine living 15 minutes from the beach, 30 minutes from Silicon Valley, and on 1.24 acres in the Santa Cruz Mountains. This mostly flat, sunny lot in Felton could give you all of that, and potentially your dream home. Buildability reports are still pending, but look promising – originally there was a home built on this lot! What we can’t stop daydreaming about is the type of lifestyle you could have here: Historic Downtown Felton is only a couple of miles away, Henry Cowell State Park is essentially across the street from your neighborhood, and you will never run out of hiking options.
1.24 Acres | $395,000
Thank you for your kind words. We loved working with you!
“I recently completed the sale of my house in Aptos through Strock Realty. It was an excellent experience and I can’t recommend them more highly. I worked with Sarah and Ben as realtors and Kristina as my design manager. The team made recommendations for upgrades and staging to maximize the sale potential and attract the maximum number of qualified buyers. Everyone I came in contact with was personable and professional. I noted to Ben after the sale that selling one’s home is an emotional as well as a business transaction and his team was superb at recognizing that. They kept me well-informed and were extremely responsive to any questions I had. I ended up going through the Homelight program to make the transition to buying another home easier. In the end, we accepted an offer of 100K over the list price. I commend Ben and his team for their caring and professional work.”| Jeff Kessler | Google Review
