About this House

Creekfront Living in Riverview Terrace; Direct Access to Soquel Creek

Launch from the shore of your own stretch of Soquel Creek and paddle past Capitola Village toward the beach. Houses can be remodeled, but a setting like this can't be recreated. Set above the water, the rear deck spans the width of the home and gives you a front-row seat to the creek below. Mornings bring coffee and ducks along the bank, afternoons the shade of the redwood, evenings the quiet of the water. The village is close enough to enjoy on a whim, far enough that what you hear is nature instead of traffic. The home sits across two levels, comfortable as it is, with room to shape into something your own. Upstairs has ample bedrooms, the bath features a tub perfect for soaking after a day outside, and the living room has a treehouse feel overlooking the creek. The lower level offers a bedroom, full bath, and kitchenette. Capitola Village is moments away; Gayle's Bakery for morning coffee, the boutiques, and dinner along the Esplanade. Santa Cruz is minutes up the coast, with Highway 1 close at hand for commuting or weekend escapes. Coffee in the village, a paddle down the creek, an afternoon at the beach, dinner by the water, and home again. Buyer to verify square footage.
