Welcome to 1328 Leila Court, a centrally located and tastefully updated 3BR/2.5BA single family home in the heart of Live Oak. Behind privacy gates the front door opens to a spacious living room with gleaming wood floors and recessed lights. Anchored by a cozy fireplace, the living room opens to the expansive low-maintenance backyard and the turfed side yard, with bistro lights and plenty of space for al fresco dining. The dining area and kitchen are accessible from the living room as well, in an ideal open-concept floor plan complete with a half bath and direct-access from a 2-car garage with laundry and extra storage. Upstairs the three bedrooms are thoughtfully laid out, with a gracious primary suite including a walk-in closet, separate shower/vanity area, and a pleasant reading nook with plenty of natural light. Mere moments from much of what Santa Cruz has to offer, including the Farmer's market, yacht harbor, Simpkins Swim Center, Arana Gulch, and many shops and restaurants.
