Nearly five acres at the top of Strawberry Canyon, in the oaks a mix of terraced hillside living and flat, sunny spaces, looking down the valley to Elkhorn Slough, Moss Landing, and the ocean. Monterey on a clear day. Behind the property is Elkhorn Slough Foundation conservation land. No public access, no rear neighbors, and nothing that can be built there later. The view isn’t a matter of who buys next door. The level ground holds the house, a workshop, a carport with EV charging, a stone patio with a firepit, an outdoor shower, and an organic chef’s garden. Below that, fruit trees and open ground. Above, a trail climbs through mature oaks to two detached buildings the owners use as studios. The house is 1,375 square feet three bedrooms, one bath, high ceilings, granite counters, cherrywood cabinets. The quiet is the thing people remark on. It’s why the owners bought it. This property is served by a private well, no shared water source. Seven and a half miles to Watsonville. Seven miles to US 101.
