Description

Tech Executives will feel at home in this stylish, modern and digitally controlled Santa Barbara retreat. This unique 4BD+ and 3.5 BA townhome was carefully designed by a CTO to create a personalized light and sound experience. Remotely control all of the settings from your mobile device to arrive at home with heat, A/C, light, music preferences selected. Lighting design was configured providing the best possible light accents and the ability to tailor the colors based on mood or theme.

Quiet, family friendly community, East Beach collection, is located in top rated, highly sought after Washington Elementary school district. Situated in a LEED certified Mediterranean Town home complex, it is low maintenance, highly efficient (solar powered). Nestled near the Artsy Funk Zone, beaches, downtown and freeway, this home provides the perfect Santa Barbara experience for a busy CEO with or without family.

Vaulted ceilings on main level with living room/kitchen/dining room make it spacious and open for entertaining. Remodeled designer kitchen with clean design and high end Bosch appliances, granite countertops, Scandinavian cabinets, a center island and stainless steel Bosch appliances, Carraway pots and pans and cooking tools provide everything any culinary enthusiast would need.

The Living room is situated on the opposite side from the kitchen. The modern theme is balanced with furniture that is comfortable and cozy yet clean and stylish. Select your favorite music, dim and color the lights using the Smart Home pre-set features (e.g. Miami). BBQ year round on the porch while gazing at beautiful SB dusk colors in the sky. Then, serve dinner in the adjacent dining room with large dining table.

The well thought out design continues when you move to the third level, where the master ensuite, 2 additional bedrooms and a laundry are located. The master has black out blinds, king bed, walk in closet and master bath providing the perfect Santa Barbara escape.

Two additional bedrooms are equipped for children. However, for those who don't have children, the "full size" lower bunks, could accommodate the occasional guest. Stackable new Samsung front loading Washer / Dryer on the bedroom level makes doing laundry convenient.
