Escape to the enchanting Los Gatos Mountains! This serene retreat is nestled among majestic oaks and redwoods on a .94-acre lot. The open floorplan offers wide views, with an expansive wrap-around deck for seamless indoor/outdoor living. Inside, hardwood floors grace the downstairs, and plush new carpet adds comfort upstairs. The kitchen features cherrywood cabinets with pull-out shelving, granite counters, and stainless steel appliances. Baths are nicely renovated. Cozy up by the fireplace on chilly evenings. The primary suite offers a walk-in closet and a spacious balcony for morning coffee and a "moment of zen". Other updates include newer central a/c and water heater, updated furnace, newer retaining walls & porch, and a watertight roof clearance. Defensible Space, Septic, and Low Flow Fixture clearances are all done, too. The terraced landscape includes a play area, garden beds, a chicken coop (laying hens stay), and a workshop/storage shed/possible office wired with electricity. About 20 minutes from Downtown Los Gatos and 30 minutes from Santa Cruz beaches, with easy access to Highway 17 via Summit Rd. Enjoy mountain living with top-rated schools, including Los Gatos High (buyer to verify schools). Experience the magic of this idyllic retreat!
