What luck! This special home is located just a few blocks from sparkling Seabright Beach, one of the prettiest shorelines on the Central Coast. The Seabright neighborhood is a well-known Santa Cruz gem. No need for a car when you can stroll to coffee, restaurants, and shopping from this ultra-prime location. Thanks to the pedestrian bridge over the river the Boardwalk is just a 10 minute walk. This cottage is a classic charmer, featuring hardwood floors and a storybook vintage kitchen with a sunny breakfast nook. You will appreciate a private, leafy backyard with a deck that captures the morning sun and afternoon shade. Perfect for relaxing among the birds and lush landscaping. Recent improvements include double-pane windows, updated plumbing, washer and dryer, gutters, exterior and interior paint, tiled shower, heated tile floors, and more. Picture this as your beach getaway or year-round residence. Wake up to the smell of fresh salty air and take your coffee and e-mails to the deck. Enjoy this friendly tree-lined neighborhood with access to coffee, cafes, Ocean View Park and sailboats in the harbor. Welcome to your ocean dream home so that next time someone says, 'Meet me at the beach', you will already be there.
