More Insights

Built in 1948 (78 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 1948, this property has undergone an extensive and high-quality renovation, as described ('beautifully reimagined,' 'thoughtfully remodeled') and evidenced by the images. The kitchen features custom cabinetry, professional-grade stainless steel appliances, modern fixtures, and a large island, all appearing brand new. Bathrooms are luxurious with contemporary vanities, vessel sinks, stylish tile work (herringbone, patterned), glass-enclosed showers, and a freestanding tub, reflecting a spa-like feel. Flooring throughout is new, a mix of modern wood-look planks and painted white wood floors. Light fixtures are updated and stylish. While the listing notes a lack of central air conditioning, mini-split units are visible, and the overall quality, modern aesthetic, and newness of all visible components align perfectly with an 'excellent' condition score, indicating a property extensively renovated within the last 5 years.

About this home

Set in the privacy of Santa Barbara's coveted Eucalyptus Hill, this beautifully reimagined farmhouse-style retreat is more than just a home. It is a story of style, comfort, and effortless California living. Thoughtfully remodeled, it offers the best of both worlds: tranquil ocean and mountain views paired with a rare sense of serenity, all just moments from everything Santa Barbara and Montecito have to offer. From the moment you arrive, a sense of welcome unfolds. A lush courtyard anchored by a glowing firepit sets the tone, a space made for morning coffee beneath the trees or relaxed evenings under sunset skies. Inside, skylights illuminate vaulted tongue and groove ceilings, exposed beams, and bamboo wood floors. Character and thoughtful touches make this home truly unique, with every detail from artisan finishes to a warm and well considered layout reflecting a sense of ease and intention. The heart of the home is the kitchen, a beautifully designed space with a generous center island, custom cabinetry, and professional grade appliances. It flows effortlessly into a dining area with a built-in banquette and a living room centered around a handmade cement tile fireplace that radiates charm and warmth. Life here extends seamlessly outdoors. French doors lead to an inviting patio with a built-in barbecue and a comfortable seating area, perfect for entertaining and dining under the stars. A refreshing outdoor shower adds a touch of coastal ease after beach days or time spent in the garden. A versatile shed with bamboo floors and lighting enhances the property, ideal as an artist's studio, home office, or serene retreat. Upstairs, an airy open concept bedroom offers a peaceful escape with vaulted ceilings, a cozy fireplace, and a beautifully designed bathroom that feels like a private spa. French doors open to a terrace framing ocean and mountain vistas, where a spiral staircase leads gracefully down to the backyard. This inviting space is perfect for unwinding, reading, or watching the sun rise and set, a daily reminder of the beauty that surrounds you. More than a home, this property is a place to slow down, savor the natural beauty around you, and experience the very best of California coastal living.
