Overview
This charming cottage-style duplex offers two separate units on a compact lot, designed for straightforward rental management. The front unit features an updated kitchen and bathroom, along with fresh paint, and includes ocean views from a fenced patio. The back unit has also undergone updates, including an updated kitchen, flooring, remodeled bath, and fresh paint, plus access to a small fenced yard and patio.
The property is located about one and a half blocks from the beach in a highly desirable Santa Cruz setting. Ocean views are noted from the front unit’s fenced patio. Parking is street-only, and the listing notes that Cypress Avenue is one way, which the seller indicates helps keep beach traffic minimal.
With both units recently refreshed and each with outdoor space, the duplex may appeal to investors seeking an owner-occupied or hands-on rental setup. The back unit’s prior use as a short-term rental may also fit buyers looking for an income strategy that can adapt over time, subject to applicable rules and approvals.
