Claiming a prime spot just moments from the heart of downtown Santa Barbara, this turnkey, upper-level two-bedroom, two-bath residence offers a beautifully remodeled, light-filled living space with views and privacy. Spanish architectural roots define the exterior, with white stucco, red-tile roofing, and classic detailing setting a timeless tone. A generously sized private patio off the living room captures Riviera and treetop views, while a south-facing patio off the kitchen offers the perfect sunny spot for morning coffee. Inside, vaulted ceilings and three skylights elevate the open floor plan, filling the home with natural light. Hardwood floors, paired with natural travertine in the kitchen and hallway, bring warmth and continuity to the home's clean, refined design. (MORE) ...The stylish kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring sleek appliances, granite countertops, and beautifully integrated cabinetry. It connects seamlessly to the dining and living areas, where a stone fireplace anchors the main space and creates a natural gathering point. All windows have been replaced and upgraded, and the home includes a one-car shared garage and a dedicated uncovered parking space.
