Remarks

This home offers that rare blend of space, warmth, and everyday convenience, just minutes to Highway 17 and top-rated Scotts Valley schools. Inside, vaulted ceilings and skylights fill the home with natural light, highlighting refinished hardwood floors. Upstairs, the great room is the heart of the home, where the kitchen, dining, and living areas come together in one expansive, light-filled space framed by a wall of windows with treetop views. The kitchen is both welcoming and functional, featuring new stainless steel appliances including a wine fridge, tile counters, and illuminated display cabinetry, flowing seamlessly to the dining area and out to the sunset-view deck. The home lives beautifully with two generous living spaces and two fireplaces, offering flexibility for gathering, relaxing, or entertaining. Upstairs, the primary suite feels like its own retreat with vaulted ceilings, a walk-in closet, and a travertine bath featuring a jetted soaking tub and spacious shower. Multiple decks extend the living spaces outdoors, creating inviting areas to enjoy the peaceful setting. The pool adds a fun, resort-like feel, while a two-car garage, yard and ample parking provide room for an RV or boat. A private setting just minutes to town!
