One of Santa Barbara’s most sought after locations is the west end of Alameda Padre Serra where many of the Riviera’s estate properties were developed in the early 20th century. This is the sweet spot of the Riviera—high enough to capture spectacular ocean and city views but within easy access of downtown Santa Barbara and the Mission.
This special property is ideally located on the south side of APS providing ultimate privacy along with panoramic views that are centered on the harbor and fulfill your day with inspiring sunrises, soothing sunsets and romantic city lights in the evening. The generous sized home offers over 3,700 square feet of comfortable living including four bedrooms, four full baths, two offices and light filled public rooms designed to showcase the views.
The entry level features a spectacular great room with vaulted ceilings, a corner fireplace and a stunning chef’s kitchen all with easy access to an irresistible view deck. This level also offers an office and two ocean view guest bedrooms each with a full bath. Up a short flight of steps is the master retreat complete with a spacious walk-in closet, a cozy fireplace and a romantic south facing terrace. The lower level offers a well-appointed media room and/or 4th bedroom with a full bath. Additionally, the home provides a 3-car garage with an adjacent laundry/crafts room.
The private and lush half acre of estate-like grounds are just as appealing as the home. The front features an inviting entry with mature privacy hedges along with an abundance of guest parking which is rare on the Riviera. The back yard is a private oasis featuring a free-form pool with pool house, lush landscaping, spacious view terraces and a full-sized bocce ball court. All together this special property offers quality living in one of Santa Barbara’s most sought after locations.
