Property Description

TWO DETACHED HOMES IN THE HEART OF DOWNTOWN SANTA CRUZ! Discover a rare opportunity to own a charming duplex featuring two separate residences at 419 Cedar Street and 209 Elm Street, offering exceptional flexibility for homeowners, investors, and those seeking a unique live-work opportunity. Street parking is available through the City's residential permit parking program, with four parking permits and two guest permits allocated to the property.

The main Cedar Street residence (1,224sqft) features 2 bedrooms, a dedicated office, and 1 bathroom, blending classic Santa Cruz character with modern updates, including fresh interior and exterior paint, updated flooring, and lighting. Privately situated behind the main home, the detached Elm Street cottage (360sqft) offers 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom, creating an ideal opportunity for rental income, multigenerational living, guest accommodations, or additional personal space. Both residences are recognized as legal dwelling units.

Enjoy abundant gated, private outdoor living areas, providing peaceful spaces to relax, entertain, or enjoy the coastal climate right in the middle of downtown. Zoned Community Commercial (CC), the property also offers intriguing possibilities for residential and commercial uses, subject to city approval.

LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! Step outside and experience the best of Santa Cruz living. Walk to downtown restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, theaters, live music, nightlife, farmers markets, and the vibrant local arts scene. The Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk, Wharf, and beautiful beaches are approximately 0.7 miles away, while the majestic redwood forests are just a short drive from your doorstep.

Rich in local history, 419 Cedar Street was once home to Chimney Sweep Books, a beloved Santa Cruz shop specializing in rare and antiquarian books.

Whether you're looking to live in one home and rent the other, expand your investment portfolio, or explore the possibilities of a flexible downtown property, this distinctive duplex offers an exceptional combination of location, character, privacy, and opportunity.

Two detached homes. One incredible downtown Santa Cruz location. Endless possibilities!
