About This Home
Tucked away on a tranquil cul-de-sac-like street, this bright-&-open two-story home offers spacious comfort and a rare sense of retreat — all just a short stroll from charming De La Vina Street shops & restaurants, the Mission, and State Street. Recent upgrades to the nearly 2,000 sq ft home include new landscaping, new air conditioning with dual-zone smart controls, new lighting, updated appliances, and more! Considering its inviting floor plan and secluded outdoor space perfectly designed for relaxing and entertaining, you may find the hardest decision is whether to enjoy the comforts of home or explore the neighborhood. Step inside to discover soaring vaulted ceilings and open-concept living areas that flow seamlessly from living to dining to kitchen. The expansive yet cozy living room features a gas fireplace, and beautiful wood flooring throughout the home offers an elegant touch. The generous kitchen features a large central island, abundant storage and counter space, and a walk-in pantry. Just off the light-filled dining area, a private backyard and extensive flagstone patio invite effortless indoor-outdoor living -- whether you're relaxing in front of the outdoor fireplace, enjoying al fresco dining at sunset, or simply feeling the grass under your feet in the fully fenced side yard. A main level bedroom and full bath offer flexible options for hosting guests or creating a home office or studio. Upstairs, you'll find additional bedroom accommodations with plenty of natural light. The primary suite features vaulted ceilings, an en suite bathroom, a spacious walk-in closet, and a private mountain-view balcony. Additional storage areas on the main level and an attached 2-car garage with a dedicated laundry area complete the home's convenient amenities.
Beautifully balancing comfort, privacy, and close-to-town convenience, this charming home captures the essence of Santa Barbara living. Located in the desirable Peabody Elementary School attendance area and mere minutes from beloved spots like Handlebar Coffee, Los Agaves, and the Natural History Museum, it's a welcoming retreat ready for its next chapter!
