Amazing Seabright Beach Cottage
Classic and sweet Santa Cruz cottage. This is literally our Grandma's beach house. 3 bedroom home that is 2 doors away from one of the best beaches in Santa Cruz. 2 queen bedrooms upstairs and 1 full downstairs. Could be described as "shabby chic" but we see it as the adorable original rustic vacation house it was built as and has been its whole 130 years. The kitchen is updated but maintains it's old charm. The rest (aside from the addition of indoor plumbing) is still pretty much the same.

Central Coast; Meadow, Hot Tub, Polite Pets Welcom
VR#111596 Seemingly remote & private yet so close to everything, single level home with massive deck on 2 1/2 acres backs to park and trails. The cook’s kitchen & herb garden overlook our meadow. The hot tub, outdoor living room & garden shower are just a few of the surprises you will uncover. The 350 heritage oak tree with 10,000 sq ft canopy is a magnet for wildlife.
