Situated in the heart of downtown Felton, the property offers exceptional access to Henry Cowell State Park, local schools, and is just a short drive to Santa Cruz beaches.
The inclusion of an owned solar system provides significant long-term value and meaningful savings on monthly utility costs for the homeowner.
