SELLER WILL PAY 1 YEAR OF HOA DUES = 13,800 VALUE! Most people consider a two acre avocado orchard a luxury. Here, it's just the view from your patio. This Cathedral Oaks Village home sits right alongside it, in one of the more pastoral settings you'll find in this part of Santa Barbara. Inside, the floor plan is a two-story layout with soaring vaulted ceilings that give the main living spaces a wonderfully open, light-filled quality. The primary suite is conveniently located on the ground floor, offering single-level living for day-to-day life. Two additional bedrooms upstairs provide separation and flexibility for family or guests. Two open patios catch exceptional natural light throughout the day, perfect for morning coffee on one side and evening gatherings on the other. The COVA amenities round out the lifestyle here:a heated pool and spa, tennis and pickleball courts, a spacious clubhouse, dog run areas, and RV storage, all spread across more than 20 acres of beautifully maintained grounds.For those drawn to the park-like setting, the indoor-outdoor living, and the ease of a ground-floor primary suite, this one checks the boxes in its own distinct way.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property was built in 1972 (52 years old) and the listing lacks mention of recent major renovations to key systems, the kitchen, or bathrooms. While the interior appears well-maintained with vaulted ceilings and digital staging, the age of the structure and likely dated core components suggest it needs minor updates to meet modern standards.
The property offers a unique, tranquil view of a two-acre avocado orchard, providing a rare park-like atmosphere and exceptional privacy for condominium living.
Features a desirable ground-floor primary suite and soaring vaulted ceilings, combining the convenience of single-level living with an airy, light-filled interior.
Residents enjoy premium community features including tennis/pickleball courts and RV storage, bolstered by a significant seller incentive of one year of prepaid HOA dues ($13,800 value).
Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =3049, other record lot size in square feet = 2945.
The monthly association fee of $1,150 is substantial, which may impact long-term affordability and reduce the pool of qualified buyers despite the initial seller credit.
With 113 days on the market, the property has surpassed typical selling periods, potentially signaling a disconnect between the 1972 construction/price point and current buyer expectations.
