Built in 1915, this property exhibits significant deferred maintenance and is being marketed primarily for its land value and R-3 zoning potential. The listing description explicitly states the interior requires renovation and is suitable for buyers prepared for a major project. Exterior images show an aged structure with an unkept yard and signs of neglect, fitting the criteria for a property requiring substantial rehabilitation.
Situated in the highly desirable Oak Park / Cottage Hospital district, offering excellent proximity to major medical facilities and downtown Santa Barbara.
The R-3 zoning designation provides significant upside for investors or developers, allowing for potential multi-unit development or increased density.
Offered primarily for its land value and long-term potential, this property represents a rare entry point into a premium Santa Barbara neighborhood.
The interior condition requires extensive renovation and is only suitable for buyers prepared for a major construction project.
At only 688 square feet, the current structure is very small, which may necessitate a costly expansion to meet modern living standards.
The list price reflects the land and zoning value rather than the structure, resulting in a high cost-basis for the existing square footage.
No exterior & parking available.
