Showcasing an editorial-worthy renovation, this 4BD/4BA modern retreat offers open-concept living with uncompromising attention to detail, set in a central location with picturesque views.
The 2,129 sq ft interior is thoughtfully designed for flexibility and flow, featuring a dedicated office and a generous Jr. ADU or fourth bedroom complete with an ensuite bath, kitchenette, and wall-to-wall Nano doors opening to the backyard. Wide-plank floors, a striking stone fireplace, and floor-to-ceiling bathroom tile elevate the home's refined aesthetic, while the expansive great room with vaulted ceilings is anchored by a large picture window framing panoramic mountain views and the iconic spire of St. Anthony's Seminary. The open kitchen - finished in a creamy palette with quartz counters and a breakfast bar - creates a chic, cohesive complement to the home's inviting entertaining spaces.
The grounds of the 0.21-acre lot are equally well designed, with sun-washed lavender shrubs and olive trees framing an inviting front approach. In the rear, a spacious turf lawn extends the living area, while apple, peach, fig, and apricot trees offer homegrown refreshments. A unique highlight, the oversized detached three-car garage spans over 1,000 square feet, ideal for storage, hobbies, or a prized car collection. Walkable to Handlebar coffee, Los Agaves, Trader Joes, Validation Ale, and Golf Lounge, this turnkey home combines elevated living and thoughtful design in one of Santa Barbara's most beloved locations.
