Be in the mountains, but close to town , this one actually delivers on that promise. Tucked right off Glen Arbor, this sun-soaked 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom home sits on a great .25-acre lot with all the charm of mountain living and zero of the isolation. Inside, wood floors and skylights keep things bright and airy (no dark cabin energy here), while an updated kitchen and bathrooms, fresh paint, and new carpet in the bedrooms mean this one is truly move-in ready. The primary bedroom and bath live downstairs, giving you that separation of space everyone secretly wants. Outside is where this place really shines: deck space for days, garden beds ready to grow, a fully fenced area for the animals, and plenty of parking for guests, toys, or both. The garage is currently a workshop/storage space (easily converted back if you'd rather park there), plus a separate studio adds even more room for art, hobbies, or just extra storage. Minutes to Felton and Ben Lomond, and about 12 minutes to Highway 17. Mountain living without feeling like you fell off the map!

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.

1.18 acres in the redwoods at the top of Blue Ridge Dr, a paved road minutes from downtown Boulder Creek. Over an acre of green, mature forest with redwood groves, ferns and filtered sun. There is a level clearing among the trees, and two parking spots at the road. Electricity, water and a septic system are available. This is your private redwood park: trees to walk under, a clearing to sit in, quiet, with your name on the deed. Summer fog drifts through the canopy in the mornings, and the light shifts through the trees all day. Walk the hillside, picnic in the clearing, photograph the groves, or sit still until the forest forgets you are there. This property includes five lots from the original Redwood Grove map, the old survey that gave this neighborhood its name, folded into one parcel. City families started buying summer land in these mountains more than a century ago, and this is the ground they came for. Down the road, the San Lorenzo River runs through town, more than 80 miles of trails wind through Big Basin, and the beaches of Santa Cruz are about half an hour away. Boulder Creek has been the gateway to Big Basin, California's first state park, since 1902.
