This elegant, single-level, 3-bedroom, 2-bath home combines traditional and modern touches. Set behind a white picket fence and arched, trellised gate, a brick path winds through a landscaped front yard and leads to double front doors with stained glass insets. Inside, a tiled foyer leads to a spacious, carpeted living room with crown molding and a trio of large windows overlooking the deck and greenbelt behind the house.
Adjacent to the open, airy living room is a carpeted dining room with windows overlooking the scenery outside. A sunny kitchen has wood floors, French doors to the deck, plenty of wood cabinets with glass-fronted doors to showcase glassware and pottery, Corian counters, white appliances (including an under-cabinet microwave and double sink), enough room for a breakfast table, and a built-in desk cubby. The kitchen opens to a carpeted family room, with built-in bookshelves and cabinets flanking a traditional marble-tiled fireplace heart and more crown molding throughout.
The master bedroom has more of the same features: crown molding, French doors and windows overlooking the deck and greenery. The master bath has a tiled floor, double sinks, and an enclosed shower. A second bath has a shower/tub and new fixtures, and is next to the two other carpeted bedrooms with crown molding and windows with plantation shutters.
A deck running along the entire back of the house adds more space for gracious entertaining and relaxing, overlooking a private, peaceful greenbelt of dense trees. A two-car garage completes the layout.
The quiet, family-friendly Santa Cruz neighborhood offers easy access to Santa Cruz Garden elementary school, community pool, trails, parks, and Highway 1, as well as a variety of shopping and restaurants nearby. Formal features like crown molding and plantation shutters blend with a modern open floor plan, a spacious deck for informal entertaining, and comfortable convenience in the kitchen and bathroom upgrades. Easy or elegant - why choose when you can have both?
