All three bedrooms are generously sized, with the primary boasting a dramatic vaulted ceiling that adds light and airiness. The open kitchen flows seamlessly into the living and dining areas, making it ideal for gatherings, while a side deck provides a sunny outdoor retreat: an excellent spot for an evening outdoor meal.

Step outside and you're just a short distance to downtown Santa Cruz, the Boardwalk, and the soon-to-open Santa Cruz Warriors event center. With the bus line to campus close by, this location balances recreation, culture, and everyday practicality. This Beach Hill residence brings together the best of coastal living in one welcoming package.
