About this property

Historic 3-bedroom farmhouse, 2 fireplaces and pool in Santa Cruz-near beaches!

Our 1914 farmhouse is situated on a private street, a half mile from some of the best "locals" beaches in Santa Cruz. Walk or ride bikes to parks, coffee shops, and a local farmer's market.
Inside the home you are greeted with a cosy living room featuring a wood-burning fireplace, dining room, kitchen and half bath. The newly remodeled kitchen, with chef level appliances, looks out on a the pristine black bottom pool and deck. A gas barbeque, firepit and outdoor dining table make gathering outside with family or friends a special occasion. On the second floor you'll find three bedrooms, one queen (in the "tower" room, with a fireplace) and two doubles. The bathroom has a shower and a separate soaking tub. Quirky nooks and crannies, hardwood floors and heirloom antiques give this house its unique character.
We welcome you and hope that you will enjoy this home as much as our family has for the past 40 years.

About the host

Hosted by Ki Bowman

Host profile image
My extended family would meet up in Santa Cruz every summer of my childhood in a house very reminiscent of the Tower House. I’ve lived here permanently since graduating from UCSC in 1977. I’m a graphic artist, runner, gardener and fiddle player who feels very lucky to have landed in this idyllic spot.

Why they chose this property

This is an original farmhouse from the early 1900’s. It’s on a quiet street surrounded by a park, a school and an organic farm. You can hear children playing during the day and the hoots of a barn owl at night. When the wind is blowing favorably, you can hear the waves breaking at the beach.

What makes this property unique

This is a very unique property that has been lovingly restored over the years. Most rooms are not exactly plumb, as with most old structures, but its lovely character shines through.
