BONUS HOUSE(S)
Whenever I see a particulary interesting property listing I will add it to my regular open house listings. Here’s a great place and they have lowered the price $25,000 as of today! Hurry on this one!
At 2620 Bean Creek Rd., Scotts Valley you have the option to hear Bean Creek babbling nearby and listen to the sounds of the tall forest trees whispering in the wind on a day when you just want to curl up in the warm sun outside and read a good book. Perhaps in that beautiful hammock you’ve wanted to hang up that you bought on one of your vacations. Or you can have a family get-together, birthday party, wedding party, or just about any kind of party you can possibly think of. This house has it all! This home can be your retirement home or a ‘growing new family’ home.
This gem is a favorite of mine because I know it intimately. The owners are my relatives so I have been to it lots of times. My favorite times have been the summer parties there. The grounds are beautiful! We’re talking room for a band, kids jumping house, clowns, face painting tables and all the relatives and friends you can gather. And, because it’s set in a forest, there have been great family camp-outs there as well.
The inside of the house is in immaculate condition. I immediately feel that “ahhh…home at last” type of feeling. It really stands out from the other nearby homes because of the water-side acreage that it is on. Once on this property you don’t even know that there are neighbors around you. And yet, it’s only a hop, skip, and a jump to downtown Scott’s Valley. This is a really quaint little town with just about everything you could possibly need. Add to all of this the fact that Santa Cruz beach is a short drive away and you just can’t go wrong.
It’s open this Sunday, May 18th from 1 – 4 p.m. I urge you to go take a look at it. And the weather forecast for this weekend makes it an ideal day for an outing!
REAL ESTATE TERMINOLOGY:
Fee Simple - An estate in real property by which the owner has the greatest possible power over the title. In modern use it expressly establishes the title of real property with the owner without limitation or end. He or she may dispose of it by sale, trade, or will, as he or she chooses. In modern estates the terms “Fee” and “Fee Simple” are substantially synonymous.
