Description
A rare offering in one of Santa Barbara's most desirable locations within the Vieja Valley school area, this flat and usable 1-acre property is the kind of opportunity that seldom comes to market. Tucked down a long private drive, the setting is serene and expansive, with rolling lawns, fruit trees, and gardens that invite a true indoor-outdoor living experience. The 3 bed, 2 bath home offers approx. 2,140 sq. ft. of light-filled living, with wood floors, a fireplace, and multiple sets of French doors opening to the grounds. A detached 2-car garage adds flexibility. Loved by the same family for generations, it has been a place of gathering, play, and connection. Moments to San Marcos High, More Mesa Bluffs and Beach, and the bike path, this is a private sanctuary with endless potential.
