Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 2004, the property is 22 years old based on the listing date. While the exterior and grounds are well-maintained, the interior finishes—specifically the tile countertops and fixtures in the bathroom—are original to the build date and appear dated by modern standards, fitting the criteria for a property over 20 years old needing minor cosmetic updates.
Situated in the heart of the vibrant Funk Zone and just two blocks from the beach, this property offers unparalleled access to Santa Barbara's premier dining, wine tasting, and coastal recreation.
Featuring a rare private yard and a large terrace with expansive mountain views, this townhome provides significantly more private outdoor space than typical condominiums in the area.
With a proven rental history and a 'lock and leave' design, the property is an ideal choice for both full-time residents and investors seeking a high-demand asset in a competitive market.
The monthly association fee of $1,040 is relatively high, which may impact the overall affordability and net return on investment for potential buyers.
While offering convenient travel access, the property's proximity to the freeway may result in ambient traffic noise, potentially affecting the tranquility of the outdoor living areas.
