for $1,999,999 with 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths. This 3,649 square foot home was built in 1904 on a lot size of 0.104.
Hidden in an alley just steps from the stairs to 12th Avenue Beach, which are bookended by Black Point and the Santa Cruz Yacht Harbor, you can find the majestic beach mansion of the first Craftsman-style homes, built in 1904. This lifestyle property offers beautiful, unique views of Schwann Lake and Twin Lakes Beach while being conveniently close to excellent restaurants, coffee shops, yachting, shopping, and the best farmers' market in town! Draped in history for decades, the home was filled with writers, artists, potters, poets, musicians, and creatives alike. This grand beauty is ready for its next chapter, flaunting great bones, historic designation, legal duplex status, classic Craftsman wraparound porches, and endless possibilities. The upstairs is full of vintage built-ins, long-lived fixtures, fathomless books, and ornate carvings that still hold the memories of family, friends, celebrations, and laughter, while the first-floor rooms are skillfully arranged like origami. There are numerous windows on every level. While the salty air and ocean elements can be harsh on the peeling paint so near to the sea, don't worry this majesty's story is not over; it is just a new beginning. Make your beach dreams come true, the possibilities are truly endless here!
