SANTA BARBARA, CA 93101

Discover a rare downtown retreat blending privacy and charm just blocks from State Street and the Presidio District. This gated Spanish Revival residence offers a thoughtful floorplan designed for effortless living. The main level features expansive living and dining areas that seamlessly open to a tranquil central courtyard, along with a chef's kitchen with easy patio access for an inviting indoor-outdoor experience. A cozy family room and a flexible second suite/media option enhance versatility. On the third floor, enjoy a private primary suite with stunning mountain views, a spacious bath, and ample closet space, plus private elevator. The first floor includes two versatile bedrooms, or potential offices, generous garage, plus laundry room, completing this charming in-town sanctuary! The spacious floorplan offers both comfort and flexibility boasting a private elevator: a main-level suite for guests or media use, multiple work-from-home options, and seamless transitions between indoor spaces and sunlit courtyards. French doors invite morning coffee or al fresco dining, while the third-floor primary retreat offers a true sanctuary above the city, reached by stair or elevator. Privacy is a hallmark here, enhanced by secure gated entry, yet the vibrant energy of downtown Santa Barbara is right outside your door. Designed by Thomas Ochsner, AIA, and built in 2003, the home is enriched with hand-forged ironwork, lighting, and banisters by Steven Handleman Studios finishes that add character and authenticity to its Spanish Revival architecture. Quality construction, abundant storage, and a spacious garage ensure practical livability to match the elegance. A rare opportunity to enjoy timeless style, privacy, and downtown convenience in one exceptional residence. Zoned SFR, not a Condo, yet with the low maintenance convenience of condo-living.
