407 Ellwood Beach Dr APT D, Goleta, CA 93117

Located just ½ block to Ellwood Beach's Sperling Preserve and the butterfly grove, this top-floor, 2-bedroom, 2-full-bath condo has been beautifully remodeled in today's sophisticated, modern style. The open floor plan creates a sense of spaciousness and an easy flow in the living areas. In the kitchen, the white quartz counter tops atop the dark solid-wood cabinets create a striking look, balanced by the light porcelain-tile plank floors. The kitchen peninsula has a lovely waterfall edge and provides plenty of counter space. This handsome kitchen includes a Bosch induction cooktop, plus GE Profile refrigerator, dishwasher, and oven. A farmhouse sink, LED lights, under-cabinet lighting, and brushed nickel hardware complete the space. The open-concept living room has beamed wood ceilings, nearly a full wall of glass, a cozy south-facing balcony, and the same lovely tile floors. The primary bedroom has its own corner balcony with mountain views and has been freshly painted in a soothing light grey. This spacious room easily fits a king-size bed, includes a full wall of closets, and enjoys an en-suite bath. The second bedroom has corner windows with some tree-top views and also has a wall-to-wall closet with new closet doors. The full bath in the hall features new fixtures and a trendy, solid-surface counter top with an integrated sink. This move-in ready condo has a stackable washer and dryer in the unit, LED lighting throughout, a new hot water heater, and dual-pane windows. A covered carport, plus one extra parking spot, provide dedicated parking. The HOA consists of 12 units and the $420/month dues include water, trash, and exterior maintenance. The Ellwood Beach neighborhood is close to UCSB, Girsh Park, and plenty of shopping and entertainment at Camino Real Marketplace and Hollister Village Plaza. There's a new bike and walking path along Hollister, too, that leads right to the Sunday farmer's market. Santa Barbara Shores Park and the huge Sperling Preserve are just steps away and provide hiking, ocean vistas, walking trails, and, of course, butterfly watching.
