About this property

Breathtaking River Views

Warm, modern, and bright interiors complement the surrounding beauty of redwood trees and ocean skies in this beautiful Beach Hill gem - steps away from the San Lorenzo river.

Three sets of sliding glass doors on the upper level of this two story condo grant fresh air and gorgeous views both to the north and east.

Enjoy morning coffee watching the ducks swim in on the river tides. Or, if you prefer a cozier scene, sit under the redwood canopy in your own private patio adjacent to the bedrooms.

Separate kitchen, dining, and living quarters are spacious and light. Down one flight of stairs you'll find the bedrooms, full bathrooms, laundry and an enclosed patio – all available for full usage.

Use the fully stocked kitchen overlooking the downtown lights as you prepare your dinner. Or take a quick 5-10 minute jaunt to Pacific Avenue – Santa Cruz’s main hub for restaurants, drinks and live music – when you feel like getting out.

There are always book readings, cultural events, and festivals to take advantage of nearby. Get a taco, catch a movie, check out Santa Cruz’s famous beach boardwalk, or see a game when our very own minor league basketball team, the Golden State Warriors, is in town. You’re within walking distance to some of the best urban offerings around (not to mention convenience stores, pharmacies, and the like).

This location offers the best of both worlds, though. You’re near the heart of it all – but removed just enough to have plenty of peace and quiet. You’re a mere blocks away from the beach & wharf, and around the corner from Natural Bridges, gorgeous West Cliff, and any number of local walking trails.

When the air is foggy or crisp, stay in and catch up on television with a Sony OLED TV, while doing laundry with the full capacity washer and dryer. When the weather is warm, open up the doors and enjoy.

Drinks are waiting for you in the fridge. Make yourself at home.

Perfect location for the beach and Boardwalk

Wonderful stay. Online pictures of the property were exact. The owner, Earl, was responsive and easy to work with. The views are incredible with 3 patio doors and unobscured views of the river and surrounding hills. The condo is in a small HOA gated community with neighbors that keep a look out. Two (tight) parking spaces. The location is perfect for walking to the boardwalk...which is a huge plus. The traffic to the boardwalk and cost for parking is horrendous. My stay would have been more enjoyable with traditional living room furniture. The teak patio furniture with white cushions in the living room although beautiful, was stiff and uncomfortable. One of the patio doors was missing a screen. The cool breeze is enjoyable, so to open the door would have been nice. Also, there are no window coverings on the expansive patio doors, so privacy feels compromised. Still, it was an enjoyable stay with absolutely beautiful weather and a gracious host. I highly recommend this VRBO.

Santa Cruz is a beautiful and relaxing corner of the SF Bay Area. I've lived here since 2016 and love it. Sometimes I travel however, so my place is available from time to time.
