About This Home
As of August 2025Located in Santa Barbara's sought-after West Mesa neighborhood and within the coveted Washington Elementary School District, this is a rare opportunity to own in one of the area's most desirable beachside communities. Set just 900 feet from the ocean on a desirable south-facing corner lot, this beautifully updated 3 bed, 1.5 bath home offers an ideal blend of location, condition, and long-term value. Situated in the Coastal Zone, the property provides added flexibility for second home use or investment.
Thoughtfully maintained and extensively updated over the years, the home reflects meticulous care and attention to detail. The remodeled kitchen features maple cabinetry, quartz countertops, and recently updated appliances, while major system improvements include newer electrical... ...plumbing, roofing, windows, and skylights. Warm hickory flooring runs throughout the living spaces, complemented by inviting outdoor areas designed for both relaxation and gardening. The mature, drought-tolerant landscaping has been carefully curated and organically maintained, with dedicated garden beds, a private hot tub, and expanded patio spaces that make the most of the property's sunny corner lot.
