Condition Rating
Good

Built in 2000, this property has undergone significant, high-quality updates that place it firmly in move-in ready condition. The kitchen boasts quartz countertops, modern stainless steel appliances, and hardwood floors, all appearing well-maintained. Bathrooms, as evidenced by the stylish powder room with shiplap and contemporary fixtures, have also been updated. While the home is 24-25 years old, the renovations align with the 'extensively renovated within 5 to 15 years' criteria. The primary suite's 'spa-like bath' further supports this. The main factor preventing an 'Excellent' score is the property's age and the noted absence of central air conditioning, which, while not a defect, is a missing modern amenity for a home of this caliber.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Prime Location & Coveted Neighborhood: Situated in the heart of Midtown Santa Cruz, within one of the area's most coveted neighborhoods, offering convenient access to Delaveaga Golf Course, local beaches, and Midtown amenities.
Timeless Craftsman Design & High-End Finishes: A charming Craftsman retreat featuring timeless design, hand-scraped hardwood floors, a chef's kitchen with quartz counters and stainless appliances, and a cozy stone fireplace.
Versatile Bonus Space: Includes a valuable bonus room above the garage with a separate entrance, ideal for a guest suite, home office, or studio, adding significant flexibility and potential income.
Exceptional Indoor-Outdoor Living: Boasts seamless indoor-outdoor flow with multiple patios and lush landscaping, complemented by serene greenbelt views, creating a private and inviting outdoor oasis.
Luxurious Primary Suite: The primary suite offers vaulted ceilings, a fireplace, a spa-like bath, and a private deck perfect for morning coffee, complete with charming ocean peek views.

Cons

Limited Ocean Views: While offering 'ocean peek views,' this suggests partial or obstructed views, which may not satisfy buyers seeking expansive, unobstructed ocean panoramas.
Absence of Central Air Conditioning: The property description does not mention a central cooling system, which could be a drawback for some buyers, especially during warmer months, given the home's caliber and year built.
Moderate Lot Size for a 'Retreat': With a lot size of 10,629 sqft, while adequate, some buyers seeking a true 'retreat' in a coveted area might desire a larger, more expansive private parcel.
