About This Home

As of November 2016

A jewel among contemporary view homes with spacious vistas of the city of Santa Barbara, the coastline, and the surrounding mountains, this gorgeous property is framed by majestic oaks with treetop views. The home is situated on a large private lot which includes multiple decks, a lovely garden, and a covered pool with heated spa. This one-of-a-kind designer home was built by the artist-owner in 1990, designed to capture the natural light with soaring ceilings, skylights, and many windows. It features approximately 3500 sq. feet of living space with 4 bedrooms and 4 baths, spacious storage, 3 native stone fireplaces including a double fireplace in the master suite, attached office with separate entrance, and granny/guest quarters. Air conditioning makes this home enjoyably cool and a high capacity roof solar system helps with energy savings. This fine home is in the desirable neighborhood of Bel Air Knolls - only minutes from the theaters, shopping, and fine restaurants of downtown, and is moments to the Mesa and nearby beaches!
