Remarks

Hear & smell the ocean from this single level diamond in the rough! Located just 1 1/2 blocks from iconic West Cliff Dr.! Take the scenic route & enjoy all of the beauty of the Monterey Bay while en route to Lighthouse Field, Steamer Lane, the wharf & Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk. Tremendous potential with a large lot of approximately 8,364 sq. ft. Lots of options for use, including possible ADU, fixer-upper for primary use or perfect beach getaway! Amazing, investment opportunity, would make ideal student rental, floor plan has a wonderful separation of space. The back addition is well suited for an outside entrance, maybe a possible Jr. ADU?? You might get an ocean view with a second story! The backyard feels peaceful & private, create your own oasis! Great areas for gardening or just relaxing! Beautiful roses, Meyer lemon tree & brick pathway give it a wonderful feeling! Walking or biking distance to cool, industrial chic breweries, wineries, restaurants & New Leaf for groceries!
