260 High Street, #204

This larger, handsome pied-a-terre studio with no common walls is in one of the most sought-after locations in Santa Cruz. Just a stone's throw from downtown and on the bus line down the hill from UCSC, who needs a car? Built in 1912, the historic Piedmont Court is the West Side's Crown Jewel for its exquisite Moorish architecture, charm, community, and conveniences. This unit is turn key! Quality wood cabinets line this studio and offer unparalleled smart and efficient storage, warmth and beauty. New wood-look LVP floors and designer-selected new paint perfectly accent the cabinets and new appliances. Electrical panel is new and upgraded, along with some plumbing and lighting fixtures. High ceilings and large windows let the light stream in while simultaneously offering a pleasant view over the courtyard and its fountain. Dues include all utilities except phone and property taxes. Stroll to the popular Abbey cafe, restaurants, theaters, post office, banks, and the MAH (museum). Amenities include an elevator, guest room, extra storage, the grand lobby and piano, a sunny courtyard, verandas and verdant gardens with sitting areas, a workshop, bike storage, garages, optional activities, and much more. One resident must be 55+. Any age can own/invest. One pet allowed. All-cash only.
