It's not hard to wonder why awe-inspiring Escalona Drive is cherished by locals for its charming homes, strollable location to downtown Santa Cruz, unbeatable commute location and top-ranked schools. "515" is in the heart of the West Side's most sought-after location. Lovingly owned by the same family for over 4 decades, this turn-key home is at once everything you need while affording upside potential to the most sophisticated buyers. The grand entrance welcomes you in to a pleasant, bright, inviting home. A second kitchen was built into the spacious 3rd bedroom which is ripe for ADU potential and/or a 4th bedroom. Southern orientation streams in sunlight to the primary suite and 3 separate living areas. Decks outside the dining and living areas offer that California Indoor-Outdoor flow and the perfect perch to bask in stunning coastal sunrises and sunsets. Situated in an elevated site, enjoy pleasant views of a picturesque neighborhood, the majestic cedar and the notion the ocean isn't far. Varying blocks away are the hip Abbey Cafe, Abbott Square, MAH, pedestrian bridge, Mission Hill Middle School, Pogonip trails and the bus stop to UCSC and beyond. Enjoy the fruit of mature persimmon and lemon trees and extra space to design a beautiful, expanded garden. Wired CAT6 network.
