Located on a quiet dead-end street of only 5 homes, overlooking a private park, this architecturally interesting home is a lovely blend of sophistication & comfort! Experience the simple elegance of the living room w/wood floors, a cozy gas fireplace surrounded by a stunning custom hearth/high ceilings/skylights, & a beautifully updated kitchen/separate family room. With ample space, this home lives as a 3-bedroom w/an office or a 4-bedroom. The thoughtfully planned garden areas are a reflection of an artistic eye for form & color, resulting in beautiful spaces for outdoor living! Listen to a fountain while smelling the perfume of flowering plants as you read, barbecue, enjoy a meal, or visit with friends & family in the private backyard, accessed from the kitchen & through French doors in the living room. Owned water softener/solar, newer windows/reverse osmosis/air conditioning are bonus amenities. It is an easy walk to Blue Ball Park, Soquel High School, & a convenient commute!
