About this home

Set on just over an acre in Santa Barbara's highly desirable Yankee Farm neighborhood, 415 Yankee Farm is a design-forward, single-level contemporary home that offers privacy, light, and meaningful outdoor space just moments from Hendry's Beach / Arroyo Burro Beach. The home is oriented around a Dakari-designed heated pool, bordered by mature agaves and stone paths that connect a series of outdoor spaces designed for use year-round. A covered dining area sits just off the kitchen, while a separate patio with a built-in concrete fireplace offers a more intimate spot framed by blooming perennials and sculptural desert plants. Inside, the layout is open and natural light is constant. Wide-plank solid White Oak floors run throughout the living areas. The kitchen is fitted with white lacquer cabinetry by Armony, granite countertops, and a suite of Miele appliances including an induction cooktop, microwave, oven, and exhaust fan. Bosch refrigerator, dishwasher, washer and dryer are also included. The island serves as the functional and visual centerpiece of the space, set beneath a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams. The primary suite includes a custom walk-in closet by RD Interiors and a bathroom finished in imported Italian tile. Dual vanities by Puntotre and towel warmers reinforce an upscale, modern design. Multiple bedrooms open directly to the garden, creating a consistent connection between indoors and out. Additional features include solar panels, two Tesla chargers, an extensive irrigation system, a water softener system, and Navien tankless water heaters. Located just minutes from the coastline, upper State Street, and the prestigious Hope Ranch community, Yankee Farm offers one of the few remaining acre-plus parcels in the neighborhood and all within a short drive to the city's best farmers markets, restaurants, and beaches.
