1625 Sycamore Canyon Rd, Santa Barbara, CA 93108

Set along scenic Sycamore Canyon Road, this nearly 0.8-acre property offers a rare combination of Santa Barbara lifestyle, privacy, and income potential. In addition to the main residence, a detached studio ADU provides an exceptional opportunity for supplemental income, with potential rental income of up to approximately 4,000 per month. The seller is being flooded with inquiries for mid/long term rentals. For qualified buyers and certain loan programs, eligible ADU rental income may be considered by a lender and could potentially translate to roughly 400,000 in additional purchasing power--making this property as financially compelling as it is unique. While the location provides effortless access to town, the home itself feels remarkably peaceful. Nestled among mature trees with a seasonal creek winding through the property, the sounds of nature take center stage, with only the occasional passing car heard beyond the creek. Inside the home, the quiet setting creates a true sense of retreat, and the generous driveway provides ample space to comfortably turn around on the property before exiting. Just five minutes from downtown Santa Barbara and seven minutes from the beach, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy the convenience of city living with the feeling of a private rural escape. Surrounded by towering trees and lush canyon landscape, the property offers a lifestyle that's increasingly difficult to find so close to town. The main residence features 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and approximately 1,559 square feet of thoughtfully updated living space with granite countertops, tile flooring, dual-pane windows, air conditioning, and a spacious sunroom that invites the outdoors in. An expansive wraparound deck creates the perfect setting for entertaining, morning coffee, or relaxing beneath the stars, while a fire pit, pergola, and flourishing orchard of avocado, lemon, orange, peach, plum, and apple trees complete the exceptional outdoor experience. The detached studio ADU features a full bathroom, kitchen, laundry, mini-split heating and cooling, and EV charging capability, offering tremendous flexibility as an income-producing rental, guest quarters, extended-family space, or private home office. Combined, the property offers approximately 1,959 square feet of living space with a total of 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. Thoughtfully upgraded for modern living, recent improvements include a new roof, a 9.2 kW solar system with 23 panels, LG backup battery storage, upgraded electrical panels, exterior paint, a security camera system, new fencing, and a certified engineered perimeter foundation. Rarely does a property combine usable acreage, canyon serenity, sustainable living, significant income potential, and such close proximity to Santa Barbara's vibrant downtown and coastline. This is more than a home--it's a private retreat offering the tranquility of country living, the convenience of the city, and the potential financial advantage of an income-producing ADU.
