Description

Nestled in Santa Barbara's coveted Lower Riviera, this 1932 gem blends timeless charm with classic architecture and offers beautiful ocean vistas. Owned by the same family since it was built, it features 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, and 1,132 sq ft of light-filled living space. The spacious living room with a striking rounded vaulted ceiling and fireplace flows into a large formal dining room with coved ceilings. The sunny kitchen retains its vintage character with period tile, breakfast nook, and O'Keefe & Merritt stove. Refinished wood floors, original details, and ocean views enhance its appeal. Outside, enjoy a new lawn, deck with vistas, and a private yard. The 2-car garage provides storage, laundry hookups, and utility sink. Roof was installed in 2015, and the exterior was recently painted.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources. This description is from September 12, 2025

    "In the neighborhood I am currently living in, the streets surrounding my apartment are very busy all hours of the day. Although, there are quite a few parks to drive to just a few minutes away that are dog friendly and plenty of hiking trails to drive to on the weekends. "
