Property is move-in ready.
The property is move-in ready and has been recently refreshed with clean white cabinetry and neutral paint. While the 1973 construction is older, the interior is well-maintained with attractive features like vaulted ceilings and exposed beams. The Saltillo tile flooring and gold-framed shower doors indicate that while the home is functional and clean, it has undergone a cosmetic refresh rather than a full modern renovation, placing it firmly in the 'good' category.
Situated in the highly sought-after Mesa neighborhood, the property offers excellent proximity to both downtown Santa Barbara and local coastal attractions.
The interior features vaulted ceilings with exposed beams and a cozy fireplace, providing a sense of volume and unique charm rarely found in standard condos.
With a tenant already in place and recent interior refreshes, this property serves as a seamless, income-generating opportunity for savvy investors.
The monthly HOA fee of $640 represents a significant recurring carrying cost that may impact the budget of some prospective buyers.
Featuring only 1.5 bathrooms for a two-bedroom unit may be a drawback for families or those seeking a more traditional two-full-bath layout.

The inviting living space is anchored by a cozy fireplace, creating a warm and welcoming place to unwind. Upstairs, the bedrooms feature vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, adding volume and architectural character. The kitchen and bathrooms showcase pristine white cabinetry and a clean, contemporary aesthetic, while in-unit laundry adds everyday ease. Generously sized private patio extends the living space outdoors. Additional highlights include carport plus ample guest parking, two community pools, spa, and community clubhouse.
