Extensive Modern Upgrades: Features new luxury vinyl plank flooring, fresh paint, remodeled bathrooms, a spacious chef's kitchen with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, and recent appliance upgrades.
Spacious & Luxurious Living: Boasts an expansive main house (3114 ESF), an open-concept layout, an additional living/game room, and an oversized primary suite with a fireplace and spa-like bath.
Gated Community & Desirable Location: Situated on a hill within the secure Spring Hills gated community, conveniently located between Monterey Bay and Santa Cruz, close to wineries and golf courses.

Cons

Shared Well System: The property relies on a new well shared by four homes, which may involve shared maintenance responsibilities and potential usage agreements.
Absence of Central Air Conditioning: The description does not mention a central cooling system for the expansive property, which could be a drawback during warmer months.
Watsonville Location Perception: While offering proximity to desirable areas, the specific Watsonville address may not carry the same premium or direct coastal appeal as properties located directly within Santa Cruz or Monterey.
