This spectacular 14.7-acre estate sits on a sun-soaked hilltop, lovingly referred to as Hawkridge, where the hum of city life dulls to silence & time slows down. The stately midcentury modern home is the epicenter of the time slowdown & construction of rare quality. It features single-level living, radiant floor heating, tons of windows, high ceilings with beams, & a monolithic, double-sided brick fireplace at the heart of the home. Outside, a horse barn, detached garage with workshop, & a blossoming garden that could be coaxed to farmstead status under the right care, are all encompassed by a deer fence. When you are ready to head back to civilization, it's only 8 mins to DeLaveaga park, 12 mins to Midtown Santa Cruz, & 10 mins to Hwy 1 or 17 for everything else. We think you'll agree: time moves slower, distractions dissipate, & the vibrancy of the present moves to the forefront on this magical hilltop. **Showing by appointment only; do not disturb occupants.
