Make an offer! Deep in the Santa Cruz Mountains, this private retreat combines Hippie Modernism with rustic charm. It includes two detached structures: a freestanding bedroom with a loft, which has the potential to become a tiny home, and a bathhouse with advanced lighting, an oversized tub, and a shower. A flat, sunny terrace with water and a metal storage shed offer space for a large vegetable garden. A backup generator is also available. Well isolated from the neighbors in a quiet community, you'll have both privacy and the reassuring sense that there are other people in the area. The surrounding redwoods contribute to a peaceful and inspiring atmosphere. While fully livable, this home reflects the passage of time and awaits a visionary touch. Priced accordingly, it presents an opportunity to reimagine a unique forest haven where modernism meets organic living, and creativity flourishes under a redwood canopy.
