Offered for the first time ever, this exceptional family estate on the edge of Aptos Village combines the privacy and charm of a rural retreat with the convenience of nearby shopping, dining, services, Nisene Marks State Park, and the beach. Built in the late 1970s by a local college professor and his family, the home showcases timeless craftsmanship and distinctive character rarely found today.
Locally milled wood beams, custom tile work, oak floors, soaring ceilings, and picturesque views from every window create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Set on nearly two ridge-top acres, the property features majestic oak trees, sun-drenched open spaces, and a peaceful sense of seclusion.
Complementing the main residence is a 2-bedroom, 1-bath, craftsman-quality ADU, built in the early 2000s and ideal for extended family, guests, or rental income. Additional improvements include a two-car carport and adjoining workshop.
A rare advantage for a property of this size and setting, the home is connected to public sewer rather than a private septic system, offering potential opportunities for future development, including a possible SB9 lot split (buyer to verify). A truly special property with endless possibilities.
