Supplements: Home some of the best views in all of Santa Barbara, this chic contemporary home is perched at the highest point on the Mesa, allowing 360-degree city, mountain and ocean/island views. Local architect, Don Pederson, designed this 5-bedroom, 4-bathroom, 3000+ SF octagonal home with clean modern lines and expansive walls of glass to capture the dramatic views from nearly every room of the house. Like a living peace of artwork, the time of year, weather patterns, and time of day bring a constant change to the awe-inspiring views. Originally built in 1974, the home underwent an extensive renovation in 1998, when the current owners moved in. No expense was spared in to remodel, transforming the home into what you see today. As you enter the home on the main level, the open entry way beckons you up a wide spiral staircase where you find nearly unobstructed views of the ocean, Channel Islands and Padres National Forest mountain landscape. The living room and dining space flow into each other seamlessly to bring focus to the magnificent views, while a gas fireplace invites you to linger within the space. Enjoy spectacular sunrises while preparing breakfast in the well-thought out Chef's kitchen complete with top-end appliances including a Thermador 5-burner gas cooktop, hood, and double oven, a Miele dishwasher, and a Sub-Zero refrigerator. The master suite is located on this main level and enjoys panoramic mountain views, a walk in-closet and a luxurious master bathroom complete with steam and body jet shower, bidet, and Jacuzzi whirlpool bathtub. The main level bedroom adjacent to the master suite makes for a perfect den or office space, and features mountain views. One of the crowning features of the main floor, is the direct access to the roof top deck, where 360-degree, unobstructed views of Santa Barbara can be enjoyed. You'll find benches for multiple people to sit and take in the sunset, 4th of July Fireworks, or even enjoy a midnight meteor shower. The first floor offers two remodeled bathrooms, and three additional guest bedrooms, one of which has been customized with an extensive built-in desk to enjoy ocean views while you work. Boasting an extensive amount of storage, throughout the home you will find California closet organization systems and extra storage space creatively built into the octagonal layout. To the delight of visiting guests, the entry level "bar" is a room in and of itself, with a fully-operational sink, mini-fridge, and a 320-bottle wine fridge, custom built locally by Wine Keeper. Grab your glass of wine and step through the Pella sliding glass doors to savor the sunset or enjoy poolside alfresco dining. The saltwater pool and surrounding hardscape and landscape are a birdwatchers' paradise and were designed to invite guests to enjoy all the beautiful weather Santa Barbara has to offer. The amazing outdoor space was created with tranquility and privacy in mind, and features a running fountain to attract native birds. From the pool area, enjoy the shaded hammock, or access the hillside orchard and gardens. This hillside oasis features numerous citrus trees (Valencia and Navel oranges, Tangerine, Mexican lime, Eureka lemon), a Hass Avocados tree and a small vegetable and herb garden--all on drip irrigation for easy maintenance. Enjoy the vacation lifestyle just a short distance to all of Santa Barbara's most popular amenities. Whether you want to stay home to soak up astonishing views every morning, or quickly jump to the beach, all will be possible within your one-of-a-kind sanctuary on the Mesa. Shopping, dining, La Mesa Park, and coveted Washington Elementary school are all within a mile, beach access within a mile and a half, and even the heart of downtown State Street is only 2 miles away.
