3785 Glen Haven Road

This is the first house on Cherryvale Avenue, one of Santa Cruz Countys most coveted roads, Saturday feels perfect when youre driving home from a day in downtown Soquel & Capitola Beach with sandy kids in the backseat, knowing your family gathering awaits. You pull through your private gate while kids are already planning their evening adventures on the property. Main Street Elementary sits just down the street for easy school drop off. The valley spreads out below with that golden light hitting the farmland as kids race out of the car & head to pick fresh vegetables from the greenhouse for dinner while adults fire up the built-in grill. Your sun room fills with arriving family members, drinks in hand, settling into those valley views while kids play on the property. The outdoor kitchen becomes family headquarters where dinner happens organically. As sunset paints the valley, generations gather at the firepit where the brick seats accommodate everyone. Stories flow while smores get passed around under the stars. Three fireplaces inside offer backup for little ones who get cold, but most nights the outdoor spaces win. By the time the last family car winds down your driveway, the kids are already planning the next sleepover. Some places just make families want to gather.
