The Unique Benefits at this 2500 Square Foot House
Our home is located on a private street that actually dead ends into the beach. Since this is a private street, there is very little traffic. We are only five doors from the beach which makes the view from our large deck truly beautiful. And of course, it is a very short walk to a great family beach at the end of our street.
Just two blocks away on 26th Avenue is a great surfing beach where they hold frequent surfing competitions.
Nearby are several great restaurants within walking distance - Star Bene (Italian), Nuevo Grill (Southwest), and Aloha Island Grillee (Hawaiian). And since we are only 5 minutes north of Capitola, you can spend an evening browsing through the shops and eating at one of its famous restaurants, such as Shadowbrook.
Very nice place for a casual dinner. Great food, authentic mexican with a few twists. Staff very friendly and accommodating and nice subtle live music. Will go again, and its just down the street
Authentic Italian food served in a small intimate dining area
Owner's Map of Santa Cruz
My parents purchased this property about 22 years ago. My sisters and I decided to convert this beach house to a vacation rental so we had it completely remodeled in 2007. Although this is an older home, during our remodel we gutted the house and installed new electrical/heating/ and water lines, etc. before we did the cosmetic remodel.
