    Beautiful Yacht Harbor Home on Highly-Coveted 4th Avenue. People say 4th Avenue is one of the best streets in Santa Cruz County and 256 4th Ave was built to take full advantage of everything the Yacht Harbor has to offer. This spacious 3-story, 4-bedroom home has unbeatable views of the water and boats, and is available furnished or unfurnished. The layout gives everyone plenty of space: a downstairs family room that's great for teens or guests, a mid-level kitchen with a breakfast bar that opens to the dining and living areas, and an upstairs primary suite with a jacuzzi tub and spa-like shower. The upstairs bedroom features a loft that leads to a private rooftop deck perfect for soaking in sunsets and harbor views. Enjoy the coastal lifestyle with south-facing decks and patios, built-in refreshment coolers, a gas fireplace, outdoor shower, washer/dryer, and a detached two-car garage. Step outside and you're right at the Santa Cruz Yacht Harbor, surrounded by sea life, great walking paths, beach access, water sports, cycling, dining, shopping, and entertainment. A rare chance to enjoy long-term living in one of the most desirable spots in the county. Tenants responsible for all utilities- PG&E and Santa Cruz Municipal Utilities for water, sewer, garbage. Security deposit due at lease signing. No smoking. Ideally looking for a long term tenant with a 2 year Lease.
