Built in 1966
For Sale - Active
1 Units

Single level ranch style in the Amesti neighborhood of Corralitos. Whether coming from Mid County or Watsonville you drive past apple orchards, berries and open pastures to one of the best micro climates in Santa Cruz County. Within minutes of shopping, schools and the iconic Corralitos market this property is ready to be called home. Remodeled bathrooms, newly refinished hardwood floors, and fresh paint throughout. The country style kitchen with broad counter tops and a skylight, it is the perfect gathering place and opens to the dining area and family room. You can nestle in front of the fireplace or head to the backyard which features a brick patio, deck and the shade of a stately redwood tree. Into gardening? Mature fruit trees and rose bushes abound. The extra wide driveway gives you ample off street parking and access to an oversized two car garage.
