Property Description
Stunningly remodeled and ideally situated in Santa Barbara's sought-after Eastside, 21 La Cadena offers turnkey coastal living just minutes from the beach. Nestled on a quiet street with exceptional walkability, this 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home blends thoughtful design with modern comfort.
Inside, the 1,100 sq ft layout has been reimagined with open, light-filled living spaces and elevated finishes throughout. The kitchen features custom birch wood cabinetry, Arctic White Quartz countertops, and a Bedrosians Clara matte white backsplash paired with terra cotta tile and coordinating flooring. Brushed nickel fixtures and premium KitchenAid appliances complete the space with style and function. Bathrooms are finished with Delta brushed gold hardware, Zellige ceramic tile, and Hudson Valley sconces, creating a refined, spa-like atmosphere. Two ensuite bedrooms offer privacy and luxury, including one with a spacious walk-in closet and soaking tub. Additional highlights include designer sconce lighting, Troy collection mirrors from Lightopia, and two new climate-control mini splits for year-round efficiency.
The outdoor spaces are designed for both relaxation and entertaining. A pergola, newly updated with T-111 wood, shades the custom BBQ and sink station with matching stand. A new garage, custom front gate, updated mailbox and street numbers, and stylish exterior lighting add curb appeal and function. Set on a 5,227 sq ft lot, the property offers a private retreat with modern amenities just steps from cafés, restaurants, and boutique shops.
