Constructed in the 1920s Golden Era of Santa Barbara’s architectural renaissance and extensively renovated in 2017, this stately home offers the best of both worlds as it balances the elegance of classic Monterey Colonial Revivalism with the convenience of modern comforts. Wonderful period details such as oak hardwood floors, classic archways, wood ceiling beams, and an original fireplace hearth add authentic historic charm, while the remodeled kitchen and bathrooms keep life running smoothly. Well-sited on a corner lot and fully hedged for privacy, this property acts as a romantic retreat for those seeking an everyday oasis. Sunlight pours through the abundant metal windows of this 3 bedroom, 3 bath home to create a feeling of serenity. Perched atop the second floor, both the primary bedroom suite and ensuite guest bedroom are accented with high beamed ceilings and a darling mountain view covered deck. The newer kitchen was designed with livability in mind, complete with an island, wet bar, high-end appliances, and quartz countertops. Casual meals can be enjoyed in the kitchen’s breakfast nook, while guests can be entertained in the formal dining room. The sun-soaked and fully gated grounds offer professional landscaping by Isa Eaton, large lawns with polished border plantings, and an enclosed "outdoor living room" patio with a built-in outdoor kitchen, fireplace, and fountain. Along with a two-car garage, ample storage space can be found in the utility basement and laundry room. Situated in the heart of San Roque, near both Steven's Park & San Roque Park, with easy access to the perks of Upper State Street, and close proximity to Peabody Elementary School, this home is where special memories are made.

Get to Know the Neighborhood

San Roque

 

San Roque is rivaled only by The Mesa in terms of family friendliness. Mainly occupying a grid of streets northwest of the Mission, the neighborhood is flat, green, and riddled with the delight of childhood laughter. Public and private schools are both located within San Roque, while grocery stores, restaurants, and shops are merely a few blocks away.

About

Upper State Street, the district’s southern boundary, can be followed directly to the heart of downtown. The relative ‘inland’ geography generally corresponds to warmer temperatures and plenty of sun.

San Roque Life

Sidewalks are rare, but slow, stop signed streets encourage safe neighborhood fun and a sociable atmosphere. Homes are unique and distinctly ‘Santa Barbara.’ Although San Roque is not on the water, gorgeous mountain views and activities more than make up the difference. Residents are certain it’s the best part of town.
