Creekfront Living in Riverview Terrace; Direct Access to Soquel Creek Launch from the shore of your own stretch of Soquel Creek and paddle past Capitola Village toward the beach. Houses can be remodeled, but a setting like this can't be recreated. Set above the water, the rear deck spans the width of the home and gives you a front-row seat to the creek below. Mornings bring coffee and ducks along the bank, afternoons the shade of the redwood, evenings the quiet of the water. The village is close enough to enjoy on a whim, far enough that what you hear is nature instead of traffic. The home sits across two levels, comfortable as it is, with room to shape into something your own. Upstairs has ample bedrooms, the bath features a tub perfect for soaking after a day outside, and the living room has a treehouse feel overlooking the creek. The lower level offers a bedroom, full bath, and kitchenette. Capitola Village is moments away; Gayle's Bakery for morning coffee, the boutiques, and dinner along the Esplanade. Santa Cruz is minutes up the coast, with Highway 1 close at hand for commuting or weekend escapes. This is a place where the car often stays parked for days. Coffee in the village, a paddle down the creek, an afternoon at the beach, dinner by the water, and home again.

The property is being offered for sale for the first time since its construction by the original developer. The property consists of (1) four-bed/two-bath townhouse, (3) three-bed/two-bath townhouses, (2) two-bed/two-bath townhouses with lofts, and (10) two-bed/two-bath townhouses. All homes are spacious two-story floor plans with private yards, in-unit laundry, 3:1 on-site parking and central A/C and heat. The large open spaces on also allow for the addition of more units/ADUs.

The city's exceptional quality of life, coastal setting, and limited housing supply continue to drive strong demand for rental housing. With a median home sale price exceeding $1.4 million (as of May 2026), homeownership remains unattainable for many local residents due to high acquisition costs, constrained inventory, and persistent buyer competition.
