Property Description
Welcome to 1221 Old San Jose Road, a rare opportunity in the heart of Soquel. This unique property sits on just over 2 level, sun-soaked acres offering privacy, charm, and endless potential-just minutes from beaches, shopping, dining, and Highway 1. It features two original early-1900s farmhouses full of character, ready for restoration or creative reimagining. A 1,900 sq ft two-story metal barn with a roll-up door adds space for a workshop, studio, or creative space. Two bonus units include a one-of-a-kind living space crafted from the propertys historic water tower, and a previously licensed detached vacation rental that has a history of being in high demand. Infrastructure includes a high-yielding private well, solar, natural gas service, and two septic systems-one brand new and the other recently upgraded, both permitted. A recent land use report outlines possible development options, including the potential to create 4 to 8 units. Whether you're envisioning a family compound, a small farm, an equestrian property, or income-generating rentals, this land is a rare canvas for your vision. Offering the perfect balance of country serenity and town convenience, 1221 Old San Jose Road is a once-in-a-generation chance to create and enjoy something truly special.
