This authentic mid-century architectural gem boasts floating fireplaces, vaulted ceilings, charming double-hung windows, and golden oak floors. Recently painted inside and out, the property is staged, vacant, just darling, and move-in ready. A long driveway provides ample parking or space for outdoor activities like pickleball or basketball. The terraced backyard is home to several fruit trees, including apricot, plum, and apple, along with a large covered deck perfect for outdoor entertaining. Plenty of room for a hot tub. This property is a blend of mid-century charm and modern convenience, ideally situated to enjoy Santa Barbara.
