Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This table-flat, sunny flag lot is tucked back off the street and offers a rare in-town building opportunity. The property was planned for a custom owner-occupied residence with 4 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, plus an attached 2-car garage. The plan also includes a 1-bedroom ADU.

Building permits for the approved design received City approval in 2025, but the permits have since expired for reasons unrelated to the property or the approved design. Included in the sale are conceptual architectural plans and a complete set of construction drawings that may be available for resubmission to the City of Santa Cruz, subject to architect approval and the execution of a plan transfer agreement.

For buyers looking to move quickly, the extensive planning and drawing set provide a foundation for pursuing a new approval path and bringing the project design forward again through the City process.

Key Highlights
