Tucked into the vibrant heart of Santa Cruz's Lower West Side, 237 Surfside was thoughtfully rebuilt in 2022 with the spirit of a forever home in mind. Every detail whispers charm: an airy, sun-drenched interior framed by rich hardwood floors, seamlessly blending contemporary finishes with eco-conscious systems designed for style and efficiency.

This comfortable home has three bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a versatile finished attic—a canvas for your creativity, whether as a fourth bedroom, a sunlit art studio, an inspiring home office, or a playful retreat. The primary suite is a sanctuary, boasting a generous walk-in closet and a roomy ensuite bath. A gas stove, stainless appliances, a pantry, and a charming beachy tile backsplash highlight the spacious kitchen at the home's heart.

Sustainability meets style with an owned solar system and efficient heat pumps, ensuring year-round comfort. A cozy gas stove anchors the living space, radiating warmth and ambiance, while the indoor laundry and mud rooms add an element of practical ease.

Step outside to an inviting covered front porch, the perfect prelude to low-maintenance yards crafted for effortless outdoor living. The backyard is an oasis with an outdoor shower fashioned from the home's original wood framing, which adds a touch of history, while the private hot tub invites you to unwind beneath the stars. Gather around the fire pit area with friends or cultivate fresh blooms in the raised garden beds. A spacious storage shed enhances the home's functionality. You can envision building a garage and/or ADU on this 7,000-square-foot lot.

But 237 Surfside Avenue is more than a home—it's a lifestyle. Just steps from the rail trail, you're moments away from Santa Cruz's culinary and cultural gems: Verve Coffee, Manresa Bread, Bantam, Swift Street Market, Humble Sea Brewing, and local wineries. Proximity to beaches, West Cliff Drive, Wilder Ranch, UCSC, and scenic bike paths complete this portrait of coastal living, where vibrant neighborhood charm meets contemporary comfort.
