3085 Mar Vista Drive

Imagine that you've found the most comfortable home where all your friends and family can gather and laugh and talk and eat and play. Where your dogs can run and tumble with their friends. Where the landscape is a gardener's dream. Where you don't have to close your curtains for privacy but rather can let the sun, fog or big full moon shine in. Imagine that you have all the room you need for drop-in guests or sleep-overs. This is it. Home. Nestled on nearly half an acre in close-in Aptos, you are surrounded by lush landscaping. You have 3 patios for outside dining and relaxing, plus a family and living room for inside entertaining. The kitchen/dining room and two bedrooms and two baths round out the first floor rooms. At bedtime you have your private oasis on the 2nd floor with an ocean view and an incredible primary bath with an air-jet tub, shower, a Toto bidet, and a carved stone sink. You'll feel far away but are just minutes to Cabrillo College and its Saturday Farmer's Market, Seacliff State Park, Nisene Marks, nearby Twin Lakes and Montesorri schools, plus shopping and restaurants. Extras include a greenhouse, 2 outside showers, hot tub, bonus room and a stamped concrete driveway for to-the-door parking. Don't miss this fabulous opportunity.
