Fall in love the moment you arrive at this nicely designed and lovingly maintained home, tucked within the charming Goss Street Cottages, a private enclave of eight single-family homes offering a rare blend of privacy and a close-knit community feel. Step inside to a light-filled interior with thoughtful features throughout, including two in-suite bedrooms, inside laundry, hardwood floors, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and double-pane windows, all combining comfort, style, and functionality in a move-in-ready package. This home lives larger than expected, with tall ceilings on the lower level creating an open and airy sense of space that enhances everyday living. Step outside to a private backyard retreat, where you can enjoy the area's coveted banana belt weather, host gatherings on the patio, or make use of the 6X8 outbuilding as a playhouse, garden or hobby space. This prime Midtown location provides easy access to Highway 1, nearby schools, and an abundance of parks, trails, shops, and restaurants, all just a short walk or bike ride away. Thoughtfully designed for easy, carefree living, this home frees up your time to fully enjoy the best of the Santa Cruz lifestyle.
