This welcoming rural retreat sits on 2 plus acres adjacent to Fall Creek State Park at the end of a very peaceful private road. The home is a 3 bedroom with bonus room/office, 2 full baths and a brand new kitchen in over 2,000 square feet. The kitchen features a Thermador gas cook top and a sleek stainless hood, granite counters and a breakfast bar. Traffic flows easily from the kitchen to the adjacent great room with vaulted ceiling, windows on 3 sides washing the room in natural light, and a slider to the expansive deck with built in seating.

Experience total relaxation in the master bathroom’s mosaic tiled roman tub while gazing out the over sized window to Fall Creek State Park. The very dramatic living room has vaulted ceilings, a highly efficient wood stove, and a pair of custom built copper light fixtures at the ceiling timbers. Each of the bedrooms feature plentiful natural lighting and new carpets, making them warm and inviting. The bedroom level enjoys a large deck with built in seating as well, allowing one to follow the sun around the house throughout the day.

On the soccer field sized plateau above the house you'll find a HUGE 1,500 foot LEGAL shop building with art studio and office located in an area of full sun. The shop has high ceilings, fire sprinklers, skylights delivering natural light inside, ingenious tie downs incorporated into the concrete slab floors, and a half bath. There is a 100 amp electrical service, a large hoist and plenty of room for major projects or cottage home creations. Of course, there is an elevated stage for entertaining your guests and a large slab for additional storage, for parking or for staging massive art projects.

The path back to the house meanders past the greenhouse with passive solar trombe wall modeled after UCSC Garden Project founder Allan Chadwick's revolutionary design. Naturally there is the organic garden one would expect on a property of this character.

For the hikers in the family, our parcel is adjacent to Fall Creek State Park with miles of trails and huge redwood specimens. You can also enjoy the redwood groves on this parcel if you prefer to hike on your own land.

Completing the list of amenities are the 1,000 gallon propane tank and the twin 5,000 gallon water storage tanks. The area at the shop is graded and base rocked for easy management of multiple vehicles. Oh yes, and we are located just a short drive from the newly constructed McDermott Fire Station for peace of mind. All this located less than 10 minutes from UCSC and the delights of Santa Cruz’ Westside, 15 minutes to Highway 17 or to the North Coast beaches on Highway 1, or a straight 85 minute shot into San Francisco. WOW!
