About this home

Welcome to 4600 Trout Gulch Rd where you'll find 12 magical acres near the western edge of Nisene Marks State Park. The house and barn are thoughtfully placed amongst towering redwoods that demonstrate the true scale of this amazing area. Enjoy stunning greenbelt views from the living room, kitchen, and viewing decks with a brand new hot tub. The warm and cozy cabin style interior provide the perfect escape from reality and is complete with a chefs kitchen. The property is networked by Starlink internet for those looking to stay connected in the peaceful redwood setting. The property provides plenty of usable flat land which features multiple custom built sheds and a 1600ft barn/workshop with a loft that is permitted as office space. Fed by your own private well, you receive plenty of sun for growing which is evident by the wine vineyard next to the driveway that produces enough grapes to make your own wine. The barn is already equipped with everything needed to start producing wine on the next harvest. Just 10 mins from Aptos Village, you're going to want to see this propery's first time on the market in 30 years.

Condition Rating
Fair

Built in 1978, this property is well-maintained for its age and features a distinct cabin style. The kitchen boasts high-end stainless steel appliances (Viking range, KitchenAid refrigerator) and appears functional, but the knotty pine cabinets and granite countertops, while in good condition, reflect an older aesthetic. The bathroom, however, is significantly outdated with blue and white tiled countertops, integrated sinks, and brass fixtures, requiring a full renovation to meet current styles. Hardwood floors throughout the main living areas are in good condition. While the property is functional and well-kept, the dated bathroom and overall aesthetic, despite some quality components, necessitate minor updates to appeal to a broader market, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Expansive Natural Setting: The property boasts 12 magical acres bordering Nisene Marks State Park, featuring towering redwoods and stunning greenbelt views, offering exceptional privacy and natural beauty.
Unique Agricultural Potential: Includes a productive wine vineyard with a barn already equipped for wine production, presenting a rare opportunity for a unique hobby or potential income.
Versatile Outbuildings & Infrastructure: A 1600 sqft barn/workshop with a permitted office loft and multiple custom sheds provide extensive utility, storage, and dedicated workspace.
Modern Connectivity & Self-Sufficiency: Equipped with Starlink internet for reliable connectivity in a secluded area, and a private well ensures water independence.
Lifestyle Amenities & Convenient Access: Features a brand new hot tub for relaxation and is conveniently located just 10 minutes from Aptos Village, blending secluded living with accessibility.

Cons

Age of Main Residence: Built in 1978, the house is 46 years old, which may suggest older systems or require updates beyond the 'chef's kitchen' to meet contemporary aesthetic or efficiency preferences.
Maintenance Demands of Large Acreage: The extensive 12-acre property, including redwoods and a vineyard, will necessitate significant ongoing maintenance, time, and financial investment from the owner.
Modest Home Size for Acreage: With 2 beds and 2 baths in a 1385 sqft home on 12 acres, the main residence might be considered relatively small compared to the expansive land, potentially limiting appeal to buyers seeking a larger primary dwelling.
