Description
Supplements: The unique split-level design of the home provides not only scenic ocean views over the city, but also five wonderful outdoor areas for idyllic indoor/outdoor Santa Barbara living. These wonderful outdoor spaces include a fenced and private lower yard, two view decks from the main level, a hidden back deck with spa, and a viewpoint perched at the top of the lot with panoramic views over the house. Once inside, you will find a sun-filled space under cathedral ceilings thanks to clerestory windows and a living room that has been refashioned with a wall of glass for enjoying beautiful Santa Barbara sunsets. On chillier evenings, the wood burning fireplace provides both ambiance and additional warmth. The kitchen boasts charming cabinetry with features like leaded glass cabinet faces and pullouts for maximum functionality along with upgraded stainless steel appliances. The Master Suite lies up a statement spiral staircase. The master bedroom showcases the same cathedral ceilings and high windows as the living room, giving it a bright, expansive feeling. The remodeled bathroom features a bay window and beautifully tiled shower enclosure. The master suite also offers plenty of storage with a walk-in closet, custom California Closets built-ins, and a large loft space. French doors open from the bedroom out to a private balcony with the same great views. At the bottom of the spiral staircase is a second bedroom with an en suite full bathroom. French doors lead to a patio covered with a custom sun shade, perfect for quiet reading. Also on the bottom level is a large laundry room and a third bedroom, office, or artist studio with two recessed closets. Behind the home is a large private deck area made with durable and low maintenance weather-resistant synthetic decking, complete with romantic spa and in the shelter of a custom sun shade. The entire property has been beautifully landscaped to provide a tropical feel while maximizing privacy and minimizing maintenance. This "artist retreat" has to be one of the most unique and charming homes that have come up for sale in this price range in a long time.
