About This Home
As of September 2022Surround yourself with peace and serenity! This lovely Spanish style home is minutes from the beach, Montecito villages, downtown as well as walking distance to hiking trails. Wake up in the quiet first level primary bedroom to views of roses, lavender, and your own three-quarter acre private setting. The open layout of the kitchen, dining, and living rooms provides easy living and takes advantage of the gorgeous mountain views. Three additional bedrooms on the second floor highlight the scenic landscape. One of those rooms, with a private balcony and built-in shelving, can double as an office/den/craft room. There's plenty of storage space throughout the home as well as in the 2-car garage which provides convenient interior access. Surrounding the house are several areas for outdoor living, dining, and relaxation including a BBQ patio. The numerous vignettes intentionally placed throughout this property allow for countless options to enjoy a morning latte or an afternoon glass of chardonnay while gazing out at the tranquil meadow.
Stroll along the property and you'll find a walk-in chicken coop, ready for some feathered friends and fresh morning eggs, as well as a plethora of mature fruit bearing trees including three orange, two persimmon (Fuyu and Hachiman), Meyer lemon, apricot, plumcot, grapefruit, sapote, Asian pear, pomegranate, and cocktail hybrid grapefruit. Need fresh herbs? Walk to the patio for some fresh clippings and a raised bed for your own garden additions. There is even a built-in sandbox for little ones and/or a sheltered secluded area for storing your surfboards or kayaks. Drought tolerant landscaping provides low maintenance color and beauty. This serene property has a lot to offer, including plenty of space for an ADU (accessory dwelling unit). Located in the top-rated Cold Springs School District.
