Situated in a scenic pastoral setting, this home sits on 1.37 acres and needs substantial work, including a new septic system and possible structural repairs. Built in 1948, the home offers ~1,577 SF, plus a large family room addition with a fireplace, full bath and wet bar, plus a detached non-conforming studio, small barn and 2-car garage. Interior highlights include wood floors, knotty pine accents, a cozy living room fireplace and a spacious kitchen with vintage cabinetry. The breezeway laundry area leads to the backyard with rolling hill views, ideal for gardening, an orchard, farm animals or relaxing. The studio offers flexible bonus space, and the red barn adds rural utility. While located on a well-traveled road, this property presents a rare opportunity to renovate and enjoy the tranquility and space of country living just minutes from Watsonville's shops, schools and services.
