Ideally located just steps from Capitola Beach, charming shops, and some of the area’s best restaurants, this stylishly updated condo offers a true taste of California coastal living. Situated above the iconic Trestles restaurant, you'll enjoy stunning village and partial ocean views right from your private balcony. Whether you're sipping morning coffee under the coastal sky or unwinding with a glass of wine as the sun sets, the balcony is your front-row seat to the charm of Capitola Village. Inside, the condo is modernly decorated with warm, inviting touches and designed with comfort in mind. A skylight floods the space with natural light, making it a bright, uplifting place to relax, work remotely, or plan your next beach day. The open layout and thoughtful furnishings make it ideal for couples, solo travelers, or small families looking for a peaceful and inspiring getaway. And with Capitola Beach just around the corner, it's easy to spend your entire day by the water—soaking in the sun, enjoying a picnic on the sand, or taking a sunset stroll along the shore. At night, return to the beach for a cozy bonfire or a moonlit walk just steps from your front door. Explore the village on foot, discovering local boutiques, cafés, ice cream shops, and art galleries, or treat yourself to a memorable dinner at Shadowbrook, one of the area's most iconic dining spots—just a short walk away. For even more adventure, the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk is only a 10-minute drive. This classic seaside amusement park has something for everyone—roller coasters, arcade games, mini golf, and classic boardwalk eats—all set against a beautiful ocean backdrop. You’ll also enjoy the convenience of two private covered parking spots—a rare and valuable perk in Capitola—so you can explore stress-free and always return to easy parking.
