Inside, every surface has been artfully remodeled, with new floors & fresh paint in each room. The beautiful living room features a huge window that frames the stunning trees standing guard in your front yard, & floods the home with light. The kitchen is what will win you over marble counters, custom backsplash, soft close drawers, acres of counter space, & a coffee bar straight out of Restoration Hardware. In addition to the details, the four bedrooms & spacious backyard give you plenty of room for the whole family. Serenity, space, & style in Silicon Valley – why not have it all?

It’s the backyard, though, that’s the ultimate retreat: being on the ground floor gives a huge swath of oceanfront property to enjoy year-round. You can walk to Capitola Village in 5 minutes, or retreat to the private community deck, which features a glass railing, tables, a BBQ, & expansive Bay views.

Thank you for your kind words. We loved working with you!

“My husband and I had such a wonderful experience working with Bjorn. This was our first time meeting Bjorn (we live in the Bay Area) and within 2 months of working with him, he found us the perfect beach house! He made the purchase seamless with his knowledge and professionalism. We have already recommended Bjorn to friends looking to buy in Santa Cruz County!! P.S. The whole Strock Team is top-notch!!”
