About This Home

As of March 2026

Arguably the best value for the price! Set on a serene oak-studded lot, this light-filled Painted Cave retreat provides tranquility that is rarely found in town. Immersed in nature, wake up to the sounds of bird songs in your bright and airy 3 bed/2.5 bath home. Outfitted with new flooring throughout, the 1,683 SF(+/-) floor plan boasts vaulted ceilings and offers comfortable living with all new windows and new HVAC system. Enjoy gatherings outside on the newly improved patio, or simply relax and unwind on the spacious new top floor deck. This is truly one of the nicest homes available in this price range. With so much noise constantly around us, finding solace in the rustic mountain lifestyle is appealing to many. But when you want to enjoy the award-winning dining and shopping in both Santa Barbara and Santa Ynez Valley, it's just 15-20 minutes away!
