Tucked beneath a tranquil & majestic redwood canopy on 1.24 private acres, this creekside Aptos sanctuary has been lovingly cared for by the same artist-owner since 1979. For 47 years this retreat has been a place of creativity, inspiration & quiet reflection, a home where nature & art have lived in harmony. This abode retains its original character & offers an exceptional opportunity for its next owner to preserve its charm or create a fresh vision. On the opposite end of the parcel a detached studio with a bathroom is ideal for a home office or guest quarters. The grounds invite exploration with towering redwoods, meandering paths & peaceful spaces that feel like a nature preserve. Just minutes from Aptos Village, Nisene Marks Park, beaches, shopping, dining & Hwy 1, this property offers a rare combination of privacy & convenience. More than a home, this is a place with a story. A place where mornings begin with a birdsong beneath the redwoods, afternoons are spent hiking trails, walking the endless Seacliff beach or creating in the artist studio and evenings are enveloped by the tranquility of the forest & the babbling brook. If you have been yearning for an Aptos retreat with good vibes and endless potential, this cherished property is ready to begin its next chapter.
