Pleasure Point Oasis in surfer's paradise - a 3BR home near UCSC

Description

This special garden home in Pleasure Point is an oasis of comfort and joy in a wonderful walking neighborhood, convenient to coffee shops, restaurants, UCSC and one of the best surfing spots in Santa Cruz. It has a beautifully landscaped private fenced-in yard with patio, deck, spacious hot tub and outdoor shower. The interior of our one-story home contains tasteful furnishings and many artistic touches. It has been a treasured home-away-from-home by many visiting academics and researchers during the school year. The oversized primary bedroom suite has an office area and California king-sized bed. It opens onto the patio through french doors framed by an exuberant rose arbor. There is a large walk-in closet with plenty of hanging space and drawers. The primary bathroom has a soaking tub, large custom shower with bench, and double vanity. A washer and dryer are conveniently located in the nearby hallway. The kitchen features a gas range, stainless refrigerator and dishwasher, a full complement of cookware, food prep appliances, and utensils. The dining table seats up to 8. The living room has a 50' TV with Roku to stream your favorite shows and movies. There is a full-sized bed in the second bedroom and 2 twin beds in the third bedroom. The twins are easily converted into a king, if required. Or we can remove one or both of the beds to create a light-filled office space. The second bathroom has a tub and shower. When you walk through the gate you'll feel right at home! The fenced-in yard is nicely landscaped and surrounded by mature trees, giving the oasis plenty of privacy. Evenings are perfect for a quiet soak in the outdoor hot tub. A leisurely 3 block walk to East Cliff Drive leads to a sheltered beach during low tide and prime surfing spots. Several excellent restaurants and cafes are within walking distance. UCSC can be reached by car or ride-share in less than 20 minutes. The driveway accommodates up to three cars; a luxury in a neighborhood with limited street parking. There's even a private Level 2 EV charger for your use! NOTE: Our home is currently not available until September 2026. Our tenants typically stay for the entire school year, with a signed lease 6-9 months in advance. We can be somewhat flexible with the start and end dates, though our rate during the summer months is higher.
