114 Buena Vista Avenue

There's a moment when you're relaxing on the main deck, Beach Boardwalk lights reflecting off your glass of wine, when you'll think: "Did I just hack life?" This Seabright Beach home doesn't play by regular Santa Cruz rules. While others plan their weekends around catching ocean views, you're greeting each morning with panoramic coastline vistas from a rooftop deck that feels like your private slice of California heaven. The previous owners clearly had a vendetta against the ordinary, massive gas fire islands that turn chilly evenings into excuses for gathering, an outdoor kitchen where culinary ambitions find their perfect canvas, and windows strategically placed to frame views most people only see on postcards. The reading nook in the primary bedroom will silently judge how long that book has been on your nightstand. The kids' bunk room will host whispered midnight conspiracies. The bar will witness impromptu Tuesday celebrations. When your friends ask what it's like living steps from both Seabright Beach and those impossible-to-reserve local eateries, you'll struggle to explain. Some things, like this contemporary home, simply need to be experienced to be understood.
