Property Description
Set on 3.3 private, fully fenced & gated acres, 377 Rider Ridge is a soulful Santa Cruz retreat where ocean & redwood views, modern comfort and a true homestead lifestyle come together. The light-filled 4BR main home features soaring ceilings & walls of windows that immerse you in the surrounding landscape. Outside, an established orchard of 80+ fruit trees, vegetable garden, chicken coops, apiary, automated irrigation & winding pathways create an extraordinary connection to the land. Thoughtful improvements include Tesla solar + 3 Powerwalls, dual-zone smart HVAC, upgraded electrical, high-speed internet, extensive drainage, retaining & hillside improvements, expanded parking and significantly increased usable land. A beautifully refreshed 650 SF guest house offers space for guests, extended family or a private office. Additional investment in defensible space, extensive vegetation management & property-wide water access complements the home's location within a recognized Firewise community. Peaceful & private yet connected, with easy access to Santa Cruz, Scotts Valley, the beach & Silicon Valley. A rare opportunity to live closer to nature without giving up modern convenience.
