Beach Hill Santa Cruz home of distinction for sale
Beach Hill is a cool area across from the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk in the upper area. The lower area is called beach flats and houses many of the workers that support the major tourist attraction. This search doesn't cover that area though as the housing is mostly rentals owned by the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk.
The Beach Hill neighborhood was home to some of the rich bankers, businessmen and sea captains of the 1860s'- on.
