Dr. Suess once said, Don't cry because it's over, Smile because it happened. Smiling is what this family is trying to do after decades of enjoying this amazing custom home in the Santa Cruz Mountains. This home was lovingly built by their father and grandfather, a local valley builder. Every inch has a story to tell. The main house is approx. 2800 SqFt w/ 3 beds/2.5 baths on the bottom and 2 beds/1 bath, bonus room and wet bar on top. Picture windows take in the forest and ridgeline views. This is a sunny 3+ acre parcel w/ apple trees, citrus trees, camellias, Japanese maples, a rose garden, and vegie garden. Also included is a 2-car garage, a carpenter's workshop, and a guest cottage that is really nice inside. A private drive to this secluded spot complete the package. But its not far to town and both Silicon Valley and sandy beaches are about 40 minutes away. Come start your story right here and continue the legacy of happy!
