About This Home

As of October 2019

This charming California cottage is located on a picturesque tree-lined street just a short distance to Montecito's Upper and Lower Villages. Recently remodeled, it was built in the 1880's, and the owners added
thoughtfully designed modern conveniences without losing any of the original charm. This two bedroom, three bath home has a bright, open floor plan and large windows. It offers the warmth of hardwood floors, a tranquil decor, and unique architectural features, such as ceiling fans, skylights, custom lighting, crown molding, original baseboards, a cozy stone fire-place, beamed ceilings and wide decks. It is surrounded by lush gardens with high hedges for privacy, and fruit trees - plum, apple, apricot, and orange. There is a detached office building, and a separate garden shed.
