Light, views, and effortless Riviera living define this beautifully updated, mostly single-level 3-bedroom 2.5-bath home. Sun-filled interiors and south-facing glass doors open to sweeping ocean views, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow. The kitchen anchors the home and opens directly to a spacious deck with beautiful views, a dining area, and a generous living room, perfect for both everyday living and entertaining.
The primary suite is a true highlight, with stunning views of the ocean and Santa Barbara Harbor, where sailboats drift along the coastline. Thoughtful updates throughout create a sense of ease and comfort, with a refined, cohesive feel in every space. Guest bedrooms are bright and inviting, offering flexibility for family or visitors. Outside, lush landscaping, private outdoor spaces, and a detached cottage ideal for an office or gym add charm and versatility.
Set on one of the premier streets of the Riviera and just moments from the famed El Encanto hotel, the home offers both privacy and an exceptional location. Beautifully renovated and thoughtfully designed, it is a timeless Santa Barbara retreat.
