Property Description
Elegance Amidst Natural Beauty in Mission Canyon.

Featuring 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, and a separate studio with private entrance, full kitchen, bath and private deck, this 2-story home blends craftsmanship and thoughtful design with modern comfort. Soaring 27-foot cathedral ceilings and solid white oak hardwood floors set the stage in the dramatic living room accented by a cozy stone fireplace, while floor-to-ceiling Kolbe Weathershield dual-pane windows flood the space with natural light. The chef's kitchen is appointed with granite countertops, Sub-Zero, Jenn-Aire, LG and Dacor appliances, custom solid hardwood cabinetry, and a center island with breakfast bar. Enjoy casual dining in the breakfast area or host guests in the formal dining room. Upstairs, the primary suite is a tranquil escape with ocean and island peeks, mountain views, walk-in closets, and an elegant en-suite with tumbled Italian marble. A convenient laundry chute leads to the spacious laundry room below. All ground-floor rooms open to the expansive patio or wraparound deck creating a true indoor-outdoor lifestyle. The lushly-landscaped, park-like backyard is designed for entertaining, complete with dining and sitting areas, BBQ and bar, fire pit, fruit trees, and manicured lawn. Additional features include a brick paver driveway, automated irrigation system, new south fence, and the privacy of a secluded yet convenient location just 11 minutes from downtown. Experience the magic of Santa Barbara living - sun-drenched patios, lush gardens, and the effortless rhythm of an indoor-outdoor lifestyle you'll never want to leave.
