3245 Soquel San Jose Road Soquel, CA 95073

You know that rare moment when you step outside with coffee in hand and hear nothing at all, just birdsong, maybe a deer moving softly through the trees on your 2+ acre retreat. For 30 years, the sellers woke up to this, and it's clear why they never wanted to leave. This home balances something truly special: mountain hideaway serenity with the convenience of being minutes from Capitola, stunning beaches, and iconic Shadowbrook dinners. The great room became the heart of the home over the years, with soaring ceilings above and a cozy pellet stove fueling countless game nights. Sunlight pours across gleaming floors, flowing seamlessly into a kitchen that practically insists you cook, with striking quartz counters as the centerpiece. Outside, the expansive deck is perfect for entertaining friends or simply watching the morning fog drift through the trees. With abundant storage, this property offers room for real life to happen. Ideal for escaping the Zoom grind, fulfilling retirement dreams, giving kids space to roam, or even keeping horses. The best of both worlds, nature and privacy with easy access to Soquel shopping, the coast, and everything in between. As the sellers put it best, after 30 years of love here, they know the next owners will fall just as hard.
