Property Description
A beautifully renovated single-level home just two blocks from Cold Spring School, one of Montecito's most sought-after school districts. The open floor plan connects an open-beamed kitchen to a light-filled living room anchored by a classic fireplace. French doors lead out to elegant, mature landscaping, a spa, and a private patio built for easy indoor-outdoor living. Thoughtful, fine finishes throughout - from the marble to the millwork - give the home a warm yet sophisticated feel. Three bedrooms, two baths, and an added den/living/guest room offer flexibility for a family, a second home, or anyone who simply appreciates good design. A rare combination of location, livability and taste.
