143 San Rafael Avenue, SANTA BARBARA, CA 93109
New Listing
Overview
Description
Supplements: ... (Read more) Tesla solar and an attached two-car garage with direct interior access add everyday convenience. Adding exceptional value to this offering are architectural plans designed by renowned Santa Barbara architect Tom Ochsner. Envisioning an approximately 3,400-square-foot residence, including a junior accessory dwelling unit (JADU), the thoughtfully conceived design received approval from the City of Santa Barbara Single Family Design Board on August 24, 2026. With much of the design and approval process already complete, the next owner can enjoy the home as-is while continuing the remaining permitting process when the time is right. Set in one of Santa Barbara's most desirable coastal neighborhoods, the location puts Shoreline Park and nearby beaches practically at your doorstep, with bike paths, the harbor, Mesa shops and restaurants, downtown, and the Funk Zone all just minutes away. Whether embraced as the beautifully livable home it is today, or as the foundation for Ochsner's architectural vision, 143 San Rafael Avenue presents a rare opportunity to enjoy the quintessential Santa Barbara coastal lifestyle now, with even more possibility ahead.
