Hidden away at the end of a quiet road, life here feels like you're in a place that time forgot, yet you're just minutes from the heart of Santa Cruz and a quick, easy drive to Silicon Valley. Mornings start slowly, with a warm mug in hand, stepping out to the deck where the only sounds are birdsong and the hint of an ocean breeze wafting over the green valley below. Theres a rare kind of peace here: private, but not remote; close, but not crowded. The home welcomes you with a sense of openness and warmth. Vaulted ceilings, skylights, and carefully placed windows let the light pour in, creating a calm, uplifting space no matter the time of day. The flexible layout means it adapts to your needs, whether thats a dedicated home office hidden away from distractions, a guest suite for weekend visitors, or an art or music studio that finally has room to breathe. The location makes life easy: surf in the morning, Zoom calls by noon, and dinner in Los Gatos if you're feeling fancy. There's something incredibly freeing about living somewhere that lets you flow between worlds, beachside relaxation, country retreat, and city connection, all in a single day. This home isn't just about what it has. Its about what it lets you do, and how it makes you feel. Like you've finally found your place.
