Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Santa Cruz's beloved Carbonera neighborhood, this expansive split-level home offers a rare blend of privacy, versatility, and modern updates just minutes from Santa Cruz, Scotts Valley and Hwy 17. Beyond the understated exterior lies 2,737 sq ft of smartly designed living space. The kitchen is beautifully updated with custom cabinetry, deep drawers, and pantry pull-outs all centered around casual, open-concept living. The upper level features four generously sized bedrooms, including a serene primary suite with two walk-in closets, a spa-like bathroom, and forest views that soothe from sunrise to sunset. One of the secondary bedrooms even includes a cozy loft perfect for reading, playing, or creative work. Downstairs is all about options: a large family room ideal for movie nights, gym sessions, or guest overflow; a dedicated separate home office or flex space; a wine cellar; and a tool room. The two-car garage connects seamlessly, and storage is abundant throughout. Built-in surround sound elevates your living experience. Step outside and the magic continues. The backyard is made for Santa Cruz living: an outdoor shower, BBQ area, fire pit, fruit trees, and several patios to dine, unwind, and soak in the peaceful hillside surroundings.
