About This Home

As of August 2021

Would you like to live in an oak grove bordered by Sycamore Creek?
When you pass through the bamboo fence, and enter 1306 East Mason Street, you leave the hustle and bustle behind and enter an oasis. The 1/3-acre creek side property is home to 4 giant oak trees, 6 sycamore trees and a large avocado tree. Often the price for this kind of natural privacy is a long trip from town, but this haven is just 5 minutes from downtown Santa Barbara and the beach.The approximately 1460 s/ft 3-bedroom 2 bath rustic cottage is adorable & has just been treated to a nice restoration. A large Juniper bush provides absolute privacy for the spacious front porch. French doors lead into the comfortable living room which features a vaulted ceiling with a skylight that provides a light and airy feel Would you like to live in an oak grove bordered by Sycamore Creek?

The 1/3-acre creek side property is home to 4 giant oak trees, 6 sycamore trees and a large avocado tree. Often the price for this kind of natural privacy is a long trip out of town but this haven is just 5 minutes from downtown Santa Barbara and the beach.

The approximately 1460 s/ft 3-bedroom 2 bath rustic cottage is adorable & has just been treated to a nice restoration.

A large Juniper bush provides absolute privacy for the spacious front porch. French doors lead into the comfortable living room which features a vaulted ceiling with a skylight that provides a light and airy atmosphere, a beautifully appointed fireplace and newly restored hard wood floors.

A lovely granite counter joins the living room with the kitchen. The kitchen flooring is porcelain tile in a custom pinwheel design. Custom tiling decorates the kitchen which is lit by track lighting. There is plenty of storage space which is supplemented by a spacious pantry in the hall.

A small hallway off the living room leads to two mirror image bedrooms which have been freshly painted and have newly installed flooring.

The downstairs bathroom has a shower and features the same flooring and granite countertop as the kitchen. The one-of-a-kind sink is fashioned from a boulder from a river in Mongolia.

There is a large laundry room with washer/dryer and another spacious storage area at the rear of the house. It also features porcelain tile flooring. The back door opens to reveal your backyard meadow.

The stairs, which have brand new flooring leads to the primary bedroom which has the same new flooring. When you enter the primary bedroom loft, you will feel like you are in a luxury tree house. No need to go "glamping", you can spy on the birds and squirrels in the oak trees from your comfortable bedroom. It is very private. A small balcony is accessed by sliding doors and provides a restful view of the property.

The master bathroom features slate floors, travertine counters and it also has a custom sink fashioned from a boulder from a river in Mongolia. There is a tub with a shower and lots of closet space.

Parking will never be a problem. In addition to the garage with storage, as many as 5 cars can be accommodated in the large driveway!
