About this House
Warm at heart and effortlessly refined, this Santa Barbara cottage is a rare balance of history and thoughtful modern living. Set at the base of the Riviera, it's one of the neighborhood's most inviting three-bedroom homes, carefully updated with an eye for craft and detail.
Originally built in 1925, it retains the old-world character that defines Santa Barbara's best cottages, while a recent renovation brings fresh, livable polish throughout. Outside, the backyard becomes another room. A custom Ipe wood deck off the primary bedroom and kitchen sets the stage for entertaining on a substantial lot and offers space to unwind or gather with friends. A finished two-car garage adds rare flexibility, offering the perfect setting for a home office, private gym, or creative studio. Within walking distance of the Santa Barbara Bowl and The Shop Restaurant, with East Beach just a mile down the road.
