290 & 300 Greenvale Road, Boulder Creek
Originally established as a homestead timber ranch, this 85 acre emerald of the Santa Cruz Mountains remains a quiet and peaceful refuge in the heart of the Central Coast, with an easy commute to Silicon Valley. This acreage features huge redwood groves with sun-dappled meadows and large areas of flat land. Both homes are surrounded by large clearings with full southern exposure and unparalleled tranquility and privacy. The old apple orchard below the houses is ready for some new life and energy. Timber Preserve Zoning allows for a commercial harvest, which hasn’t been done for many years, adding tremendous income potential. This zoning also provides big savings on property taxes.
A custom build in 1988, the 1,889 square foot main house has a passive solar design with great light and an open floor plan. The entry is on the north side with nice tiled foyer and spiral staircase leading to a bright lookout loft or office. The spacious kitchen and living room are only separated by large counter top and breakfast bar. Down the hall you will find a sizeable guest bedroom, full guest bathroom, and the spacious master suite. A giant deck on the south side does a great job of connecting the living spaces with the surrounding natural beauty. The third bedroom and full bathroom, not included in the square footage, are on the lower level with a separate entrance, creating a wonderfully private guest quarters. Also on the lower level, a huge shop has plenty of space for all your tools and projects.
Stepping back in time to 1907, the 1,274 square foot guest house has all the charm you might expect and is encircled by heirloom botanical specimens. This home of 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom is begging for a restoration, but the potential here is great and it shows! There is even a huge attic space that could be finished. It’s not hard to develop your own vision for this historic opportunity.
One could dream about and write praise for this property forever, but it deserves to be experienced firsthand. Don’t hesitate!
Priced at $1,774,000
