The Willey House at 105 Sylvar Street in Santa Cruz, is a historically designated Victorian residence set behind a canopy of mature trees on Santa Cruzs historic Mission Plaza. This iconic property blends timeless Stick-Eastlake architecture with rich local heritage and enduring character. Originally built in 1887 for Henry Willey, the first president of Peoples Bank, this distinguished 3,698 square foot residence showcases unparalleled craftsmanship.
