133 Kennan Street A

Light, bright 2009 Redwood Village townhome with two ensuite bedrooms and the largest private backyard on the block. Approximately 1,198 square feet in a low maintenance community just off Ocean Street, with easy access to downtown dining, the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, Main Beach and Cowell Beach, and Monterey Bay. The open main level features high ceilings and a dining area that flows into the living room. The kitchen is set up for everyday cooking with Formica counters, a gas range, dishwasher, microwave, and refrigerator. A half bath is downstairs. Upstairs, both bedrooms are true ensuite suites with walk-in closets, plus upper-floor laundry. Flooring is a practical mix of carpet and vinyl/linoleum. Forced-air heat, dual-flush toilets, and other energy-saving features keep it efficient. Single-car garage. What sets this home apart is the outdoor space: a large backyard left as a blank slate for a patio, garden, or weekend hangout. Ocean Street provides a straightforward route to Highway 17 for the commute over the hill to San Jose, Silicon Valley, and the Peninsulathen home to Santa Cruz restaurants, the Boardwalk, top beaches, and Monterey Bay. Same easy floor plan the market already knows: two ensuite bedrooms, 2.5 baths, bigger yard, great commute.
