Sunshine, timeless charm and a seriously sweet location will have you falling in love with this classic, move-in ready cottage nestled in Santa Cruz's desirable Banana Belt. This updated single-level beautifully blends period character with modern conveniences - original hardwood floors, a welcoming covered front porch, and a full renovation 10 yrs ago, including new kitchen, bath, heating, plumbing, electrical, and double-pane windows, make this home as livable as it is lovable. Step outside to a spacious and sunny 6K+ st ft lot with raised garden beds and easy-care landscape, perfect for green thumbs or weekend lounging. Detached and powered outbuilding offers endless possibilities for office, studio or creative space. A covered back patio sets the stage for year-round dining and entertaining, thanks to the warm nights and fog-free days this area is known for. This unbeatable Midtown location puts you close to local dining favs like Lillian's, Akira Sushi and Charlie Hong Kong, Sante Andrius Rustic Ales or Gilman Brewing for a pint and pizza, and Shoppers Corner or Whole Foods for all the essentials. And when the weekend hits, you're just in time for the Midtown Friday Night Block Parties with live music, food trucks and community vibes included. So what are you waiting for!
