One of Santa Barbara's architectural jewels, the Hodges House was originally designed in 1921 by Winsor Soule and received an American Institute of Architects Award in 1924. Thoughtfully restored and expanded by Harrison Design in 2013, the estate preserves its Classical Mediterranean details; coffered ceilings, arched French doors, and formal gardens while seamlessly integrating modern luxury. Set on approximately 1.16 acres in the heart of the Upper East, the property includes a series of lush ''garden rooms
brick pathways, citrus trees, rose beds, raised planters, and a meditation area. A stunning pool and spa courtyard anchors the outdoor living experience, with a large lawn just off the kitchen and family room. Inside, 6,100 square feet of sunlit interiors feature oak floors throughout, a dramatic formal gallery, great room, chef's kitchen, family room, and formal dining. A hidden speakeasy-style bar and lounge adds a glamorous touch of Old Hollywood.
With 7 bedrooms and 5.5 baths and 3-bay garage, this fully furnished residence is a rare opportunity to experience one of Santa Barbara's most iconic and beautifully preserved historic homes - gracious, grounded, and undeniably unforgettable.
