Property Description

There is something quietly special about Centennial Street. Mornings begin with sea air drifting through open windows. Evenings carry the distant sound of seals along the coast. 5-mins to Lighthouse Field & the wharf. This is Westside Santa Cruz living at its most natural. The home was originally built by a contractor for his own residence, later owned by a world-renowned installation artist, using powerful visual narratives through multi-screen installations. Spanish-style stucco, warm textures, & an easy flow connect the entry, dining, & kitchen spaces. Southern-facing patios bring sunlight into the primary bedroom, while rear living areas settle into golden evening light. Birds of paradise & palms frame the front garden, with curated lighting creating a soft glow indoors & out. The primary suite opens to a private patio for sunrise coffee. A permitted detached ADU with its own yard provides flexible living or rental potential. The drive-through garage with backyard access, & a 240V electric charger. The street itself remains remarkably quiet, with little neighbor noise & a calm residential feel. Warm, organic, & deeply livable. A home shaped by light, ocean air, & everyday ease.
