Sun, Flat Open Land, and a Full Remodel in Boulder Creek. Two things rarely come together on a Boulder Creek property: real sunlight and flat, open, usable ground. This one has both, on nearly seven-tenths of an acre that stays level and open. Room to garden, gather, park, or simply let the light in, without a hillside dictating every decision. In redwood country, that much flat, sunny land is the hard part to find, and here it's already done. Inside, the home has been fully remodeled with high-end appliances and finishes throughout. The kitchen is finished in quartz, and the primary bath is built around double sinks and an oversized shower. The setting still gives you the redwoods the shade, the quiet, the trees you came up here for while the sun reaches the ground, which is what makes the outdoor space livable across the seasons. Boulder Creek sits at the heart of the San Lorenzo Valley, its historic downtown a short stretch of Highway 9 lined with Victorian storefronts, local shops and restaurants, and the murals that trace the town back to the 1870s. The redwoods of Big Basin rise just up Highway 236. Santa Cruz and the coast are down the valley; the Silicon Valley side is over the ridge on Highway 35.
