Sunlit compound with panoramic views spanning from the Santa Barbara Mission to the harbor, Pacific Ocean, and Channel Islands. Set across three parcels, this exceptional property features two detached, single-level Mid-Century homes, each designed to capture the drama of the south-facing vista through walls of glass and clean architectural lines. 949 Cheltenham offers 3BD/2BA (1,708 SF) of light-filled living with a newer roof, HVAC, and many upgrades. The sleek kitchen is appointed with Viking and Sub-Zero appliances, and a newer spa positioned for sunset soaks. A private courtyard wrapped in bougainvillea accentuates the indoor outdoor design. 947 Cheltenham is a beautifully maintained 2BD/1BA (856 SF) with hardwood floors, granite kitchen, a 2 car garage, spa hookups and views that sweep from landmarks to coastline. Recently painted inside and out, with many updates, both homes are move-in condition and offer flexibility for extended family, dual living, or future income. Whether you're seeking a long-term investment, a multi-generational escape, these two stunning homes deliver space and style just minutes to downtown Santa Barbara.
