Westcliff winds along the coast and ends at Natural Bridges, but right before the park entrance is this short little street Chico. Here you truly live the beach life as you are at the point where Santa Cruz opens up to the ocean. The wind blows directly from distant lands to cool you and bring you the essence of the sea. This street is sought after because it lives at the edge of the ocean and the city. In this home you can live comfortably with an open floor plan to enjoy your family or friends. Backyard is a perfect size you don't have time for large yards you are too busy playing! Ground floor primary suite, and generous sized bedrooms and bath upstairs. Two car garage to stash the toys. And on the weekends you are off, cruising the cliffs, paddling the waves, riding the trails, looking for monarchs, building sand castles or just saying ah... Seas the day here.
