Comfortable, welcoming, and filled with everyday charm, this Aptos home offers a wonderful place to put down roots, whether planting them for the first time or settling into the next chapter where single-level living brings a more relaxed pace. Life here is about enjoying the simple moments - coffee on the front porch swing, cozy evenings by the fireplace during a winter rain, or al fresco meals with family and friends in a private backyard as evening light filters through the trees. Freshly painted both inside and out, the home features easy-care plank flooring throughout, French doors opening to the backyard from both the living room and bedroom, a two-car garage and room for your boat or RV. With no-through traffic, the setting creates a relaxed environment for walking and biking, while friendly neighbors and a welcoming feel adds a genuine sense of community. Families will appreciate the convenience of walking to the elementary school, and everyone will enjoy being just one mile from Aptos Village, with local favs including Mentone, Cat and Cloud, New Leaf Market, and everyday conveniences. Nearby Nisene Marks Park offers miles of scenic trails beneath the redwoods. A wonderful opportunity to enjoy a true neighborhood feel and the best of Aptos right outside your door
