With great curb appeal and solid value, this recently updated single-level 2 bedroom, 1.5 bath home sits in the heart of Live Oak. Perfect for a first time buyer or those looking to downsize alike – this home checks a lot of the boxes to make it an easy choice for your next move. Inside, recent updates include fresh interior paint, flooring, roof, and refreshed landscaping, kitchen, and bathrooms, making the home move-in ready. Vaulted ceilings add a sense of openness, and a flexible loft area works well as a cozy reading nook, home office, or extra storage. The home is set near the center of the lot, leaving usable yard space on all sides perfect for spending time outside, gardening, relaxing, or recreating in the sunshine. An attached two-car garage provides convenient parking and additional storage. The location offers easy access to commute routes, local restaurants, nearby parks (like Leo’s Haven and Arana Gulch), and all the outdoor activities Santa Cruz County is known for.
