About This Home

As of January 2026

Discover your coastal dream home in Santa Barbara Shores! Rarely available, this single-level home is on the market for the first time in 37 years! This coveted neighborhood location offers easy access from your backyard to miles of blufftop ocean trails, the Ellwood Monarch Butterfly Grove, and secluded neighborhood beaches. With pride of ownership, this home has been well maintained and updated throughout to make this your forever home--including roof, plumbing, electrical and insulation. The home chef will love the spacious remodeled kitchen with custom kitchen cabinets, pantry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances and a large central island for food preparation. Adjacent to the kitchen, the cozy family room with gas fireplace leads to a private backyard oasis with peaceful and a serene greenbelt view. This low maintenance yard includes a detached 10x12 structure that would make a wonderful yoga studio/gym, office, or children's play room. The owners thought of every convenience including an expanded driveway for RV parking and moving utility wires underground!
The Santa Barbara Shores community offers the perfect outdoor lifestyle! You will often see neighbors riding a bike with surfboard in hand on the way to the local beach or walking their dogs in the neighborhood park. Convenient location with nearby amenities including Sandpiper Golf Course, the Ritz Carlton Resort, Costco, and the Camino Real shops and restaurants. Bring your walking shoes and enjoy a short hike to the ocean! Don't miss this one!
