155 Stephen Road, Aptos, CA 95003

This updated triplex includes three distinct residential units: a three-bedroom owner’s unit, a studio, and a two-bedroom unit. Interiors have been refreshed throughout, with light, bright finishes and updated details such as shiplap ceilings, refreshed kitchens, updated light fixtures, and remodeled-looking bathrooms. The property’s three-unit configuration provides multiple layout options for an owner-operator or an operator seeking varied nightly-stay accommodations.

The home is located in Santa Cruz County, described as being on the last street in a vacation rental permitted zone. Practical everyday convenience is also emphasized, with a walk to the sand in about 3 minutes and nearby access to local eateries. The property is also presented as approximately 6 minutes from Aptos Village, 7 minutes from Nisene Marks Forest, and about 5 minutes to Hwy 1.

For buyers evaluating a short-term rental strategy, the unit mix supports different guest needs, from studio stays to two- and three-bedroom options, while still functioning as a traditional residential income property. Because the seller’s remarks reference a vacation rental permitted zone, interested parties can review application requirements and eligibility for their intended use. Overall, the combination of an updated interior package and multi-unit layouts makes this triplex a straightforward fit for an operator seeking flexibility across unit types.
