Beautiful 3.8 acre South Santa Cruz County parcel with gorgeous views, vast open space and endless possibilities. House is a 2bd / 1ba fixer upper in need of extensive TLC. Fantastic location - rural feeling but is only a short drive to grocery stores, restaurants, Highway 1 and other amenities. Buyers are encouraged to speak with the county about future possibilities for this parcel including a lot split - property is zoned R 1-10. Due to the home needing extensive TLC, it is believed that cash or a hard money or rehab loan will be necessary to purchase the home.
