More Insights
Built in 1954 (71 years old).
Condition: Built in 1954, the property's main structure is significantly dated and shows considerable wear, as indicated by the weathered exterior and basic, unfinished-looking interior spaces (excluding the detached bathhouse). The listing description explicitly states it 'reflects the passage of time and awaits a visionary touch,' confirming the need for substantial rehabilitation. While the detached bathhouse appears to be a more recent and well-appointed renovation with modern stone and fixtures, it does not elevate the overall condition of the primary residence. The main living areas and bedroom are very basic, with signs of deferred maintenance and outdated finishes, requiring significant investment to modernize.

About this home
Make an offer! Deep in the Santa Cruz Mountains, this private retreat combines Hippie Modernism with rustic charm. It includes two detached structures: a freestanding bedroom with a loft, which has the potential to become a tiny home, and a bathhouse with advanced lighting, an oversized tub, and a shower. A flat, sunny terrace with water and a metal storage shed offer space for a large vegetable garden. A backup generator is also available. Well isolated from the neighbors in a quiet community, you'll have both privacy and the reassuring sense that there are other people in the area. The surrounding redwoods contribute to a peaceful and inspiring atmosphere. While fully livable, this home reflects the passage of time and awaits a visionary touch. Priced accordingly, it presents an opportunity to reimagine a unique forest haven where modernism meets organic living, and creativity flourishes under a redwood canopy.
