Property Description

Tucked into the serene redwoods of Bonny Doon, 8472 Empire Grade Road offers a rare opportunity to enjoy a comfortable, move-in-ready home paired with an exceptionally usable and expansive property. The offering includes two parcels totaling approximately 2.756 acres. The main parcel with the residence spans 1.834 acres, plus a neighboring .922-acre parcel is included in the sale. The 1,038 sq ft, 2 bedroom, 1bath home is thoughtfully laid out with the option for single-level living, featuring a ground floor bedroom and full bathroom. Upstairs, a cozy second bedroom showcases warm wood clad walls, forest view windows, and a generous closet, creating a peaceful retreat. The downstairs bedroom offers excellent storage with two large closet spaces. Recent updates to the kitchen and bathroom, along with new downstairs flooring, make this home truly move-in ready. Outside, the property shines with an impressive amount of flat, usable land, ample parking, and room to enjoy the outdoors, garden, or expand your vision. Backing directly to Fall Creek State Park, the property provides convenient access to miles of scenic trails and natural beauty. The location is both private and convenient, with easy access to UCSC, Santa Cruz, Felton, and Ben Lomond.
