Savor the quintessential Santa Barbara lifestyle where modern luxury meets tradition in the heart of the city. Gracefully sited on an elevated corner in the prestigious Upper East neighborhood, this completely rebuilt architectural gem offers the perfect blend of old-world charm with impeccable design and a carefree, comfortable style for luxurious downtown living.

The downstairs level features a newly completed one-bedroom accessory dwelling unit with a private entrance ideal for extended family, office use, or added income. In a nod to its early turn-of-the-century heritage, this charming residence showcases a formal entry hall, gracious living room, and a separate dining room with period features including a fireplace, built-in seating and cabinetry, beamed ceilings, wainscoting, and a sun-drenched bay window. Timeless design is perfectly paired with thoughtful modern amenities including an open concept chef's kitchen with adjacent family room, vaulted skylit ceilings, wide oak flooring throughout, and flawless designer finishes. The home is beautifully conceived for contemporary living both inside and outside.
