    Description

Minutes to the affluent City of Scotts Valley, with great schools, parks, and shops.

The level building site at the top of the property has mountain views, full sun, and easy access to public power and water. An old vineyard still has some life, but needs some love to make it grow. Various fruit trees and other landscaping took the raw out of this vacant land, making it ready for the next step. Your dreams are the limit!

      "Lived here for 2 years. Just off the beach. Cars are broken into regularly. I never leave anything in my car to prevent break ins. Bikes are stolen all the time. And if our apartment wasn’t hidden behind a large house I would worry about being broken into. It’s a hippy city and surfer and bro mentality or old ppl who don’t want it to change EVER ....the beach aspect is nice. But we are moving soon and I won’t be sad to leave. "
