Property Description
Offered for the first time ever, this Bel Air Knolls residence has a story as special as its setting. Built in 1969, the home's original owner reportedly flew over the newly created hilltop subdivision and selected this particular parcel for its cul-de-sac location, privacy, ocean and hillside views. With wide, tree-lined streets, sidewalks, and generously sized homes, Bel Air Knolls was a sought-after neighborhood from its inception--and its appeal remains just as strong today. The location offers convenient access to downtown Santa Barbara, the Mesa, Hendry's Beach, and Elings Park. Around 2000, a second-story bedroom suite with wet bar was added, creating a fourth bedroom and bath along with toe-curling vistas of the surrounding hills, Pacific Ocean, and Channel Islands. The private, ample rear yard is dotted with a variety of mature fruit trees, inviting leisurely mornings spent picking fresh fruit, sipping coffee, and gazing out to sea while contemplating just how good Santa Barbara living can be. Pleasantly livable as-is and rich with potential, this longtime family home is ready for its next owners to bring a fresh vision and usher it into its next chapter as a modern-day paradise.
