328 Stanford Ave, Santa Cruz, CA 95062

This is the home you've been waiting for, where the warmth of a turn-of-the-century country farmhouse meets the convenience of in-town living, in the heart of a well-established, sought-after Eastside neighborhood. Set on a lot just under 10K sq ft, the home offers a rare blend of space, charm, and lifestyle. It lists as 3BR, but the flexible floor plan with extra office, den, and family rooms can easily live as a 4 or 5BR, plus a generous attic perfect for hobbies or children's hideaway. The deep, drive-through garage is ideal for projects, while the backyard feels like an urban farm. A true gardeners delight overflowing with veggies and flowers thriving in rich organic soil, towering sunflowers, birds and butterflies. To complete this backyard haven, a chicken coop, kid's clubhouse and a stand of redwoods waiting for a hammock. Generous wraparound, front porch, high ceilings, and wood details are a nod to the homes history, while quality double pane windows, extensive structural and electrical upgrading, and a remodeled kitchen make for easy living. The location puts you a short stroll or bike ride to Whole Foods, Shoppers Corner, Tacos Moreno, Friday Midtown and favorite shops - proof you can have the feel of country living and the best of Santa Cruz, right at your doorstep
