A bright, expansive sunroom brings the outdoors in, offering a peaceful retreat or gathering space. The home also has a laundry room and a cozy family room with its own fireplace. Outside, a large pond with graceful wood ducks enhances the serene atmosphere, while a meandering creek below adds to the natural charm. A circular driveway provides ample parking, the mature orchard (apple, plum, walnut, and pear trees), a chicken coop, garden sheds, a spacious workshop, and lush landscaping offer endless possibilities for homesteading, hobbies, or creative outdoor design. Experience the beauty, privacy, and charm of Pond House, a Aptos Hills paradise.
