If home is where you spend most of your life, it should offer more than a beautiful place to live. It should give you room to gather, space to retreat, and the flexibility to support whatever comes next.
Set on approximately 0.39 acres, this four-bedroom, four-bathroom Soquel home offers 3,135 square feet of living space surrounded by mature trees and thoughtfully landscaped grounds. Built in 1996, it balances an impressive architectural presence with the warmth and comfort of a home designed for everyday life.
A Grand Welcome
The home makes an impression before you even step inside. Its brick and stucco exterior, tile roof, arched windows, established landscaping, and two-car garage create a stately arrival at the end of the court.
Inside, soaring ceilings and a dramatic second-story overlook immediately establish the scale of the home. Architectural columns, warm hardwood floors, arched windows, and black iron lighting add character, while the soft neutral palette allows the surrounding greenery to take center stage.
The home feels open and impressive without sacrificing a sense of calm.
Designed for Everyday Living
The floor plan provides spaces for both connection and separation.
A formal dining room offers a dedicated setting for holidays and special dinners, while the main living areas create an easy rhythm for everyday routines. The vaulted family room is filled with natural light and framed by broad windows overlooking the trees.
It is the kind of room that can hold an active afternoon with family just as comfortably as a quiet evening at home.
The kitchen sits at the center of the home, connecting naturally to the casual dining area and outdoor deck. White cabinetry provides generous storage, while glass-front display cabinets, dark countertops, built-in appliances, and a central island create a functional workspace with classic appeal.
Multiple doors opening outside allow daily life to extend onto the deck, whether you are carrying coffee out in the morning or hosting dinner beneath the pergola.
Space That Can Change With You
With four bedrooms and four bathrooms, the home offers flexibility for a range of needs.
Bedrooms can support family, guests, work-from-home space, creative projects, or a private retreat. The home’s generous proportions make it possible to create distinct areas without losing the sense of connection between them.
The bathrooms are equally thoughtful. Light finishes, stone countertops, plantation shutters, and a freestanding soaking tub create a bright, restful atmosphere that feels removed from the pace of the day.
This is a home that can adapt as life changes, providing room for both the plans you have now and the ones you have not made yet.
Outdoor Living Among the Trees
The outdoor spaces may be one of the property’s greatest advantages.
An expansive deck extends along the back of the home beneath a pergola-style covering, creating multiple areas for dining, lounging, grilling, or gathering with friends. String lights and filtered sunlight make the deck feel ready for long weekend meals and relaxed evenings outside.
Below, the landscaped grounds unfold through mature trees, flowering plants, gravel paths, terraced garden areas, and intimate places to sit and reset.
A dedicated bocce court and adjacent outdoor bar create a natural setting for friendly competition and entertaining. There is room for kids to explore, space to garden, and enough separation between the upper deck and lower grounds to enjoy the property in different ways.
Despite the home’s substantial size, the surrounding greenery gives it a sense of privacy and quiet.
Connected to the Best of Soquel and Capitola
The location brings together a residential setting and convenient access to some of the area’s most loved destinations.
New Brighton State Beach, Capitola Village, Soquel Village, 41st Avenue, local restaurants, coffee shops, shopping, and everyday conveniences are all nearby. Highway 1 is also easily accessible for travel throughout Santa Cruz County or toward Silicon Valley.
You can spend the morning near the water, meet friends for lunch in Capitola or Soquel, and return home to a setting surrounded by trees.
A Home Built for More Than One Chapter
Some homes are designed for a particular moment. This one has the space and flexibility to support many chapters.
Its scale makes room for gatherings. Its floor plan creates places to retreat. Its deck and gardens encourage more time outside. Its location keeps beaches, dining, shopping, and daily essentials within easy reach.
More than anything, it offers the opportunity to build a life that feels as good as the setting around it.
