Built in 1925, this Spanish-style residence carries the character that defined Santa Barbara's early architecture, with classic white-washed walls, a red tile roof, and arched details that have held up for a century. A second, fully separate house on the property adds room to live, host, and plan for what comes next.
Both homes are single-story, so daily living is easy from front door to garden. The main residence offers 2 bedrooms 1.5 baths with interior features: e.g., original hardwood floors, beamed ceilings, fireplace, updated kitchen. The second house offers 1 bedrooms 1 baths and its own entrance, well suited for extended stays with guests, a studio, or rental income. The property's R-O (Restricted Office) and R-2 (Two-Unit Residential) zoning adds real flexibility. Owner-users, investors, and professionals can consider a range of options, from a two-home residential setup to a live/work arrangement or professional office use, subject to City of Santa Barbara approval.
