820 Bear Creek Canyon

Fifty-eight acres in the Santa Cruz Mountains, the kind of land that doesn't come up often. A creek runs through the property, and there are several flat, usable landings. The upper landing has 180-degree mountain views. One mile off Bear Creek Road on a private road, twelve minutes to world-famous Skyline Blvd, and minutes from Byington and David Bruce wineries. Los Gatos and Highway 17 are roughly half an hour away; downtown Boulder Creek is 12 minutes the other way. This is a project. The 3BD/2BA, 1,610 sq ft house (1982) and block-built workshop are fixers. Under the wear is a true 1980s contemporary: two stories, high ceilings, a river rock fireplace, and angled shed rooflines with porthole windows. The forest is redwood and mixed evergreen. Off-grid potential for someone who wants to be 30 minutes from Silicon Valley and a world away from it.
