On the American Riviera of Santa Barbara, bordering a peaceful canyon, this retreat property offers ultimate privacy, lush tropical landscaping and irresistible city and ocean views. Located up a charming and meandering road and at the end of a cul-de-sac and hidden from all but the on foot neighbors is a house tucked away and waiting for a little bit more TLC to bring it up to its full potential.
The stylish home features an open floor plan with oak floors, wood beam ceilings, gourmet kitchen, with granite counters and walls of glass to showcase the views looking out over the city, the Channel Islands and Pacific Ocean. It is impossible to enter the home and not immediately walk toward the patio and take in the sweeping panorama of Santa Barbara’s beauty. Currently a four bedroom, four bathroom home, stay tuned for what my talented Buyer does next.
A million dollar view to be sure and we were able to obtain the property for substantially less through an auction. This one was interesting…a bank owned (REO) that required an “E-Bay” type of bidding process to get it under contract. This was not something that I had (or anyone in my company) done before, but it worked out and my buyer was able to obtain a property previously listed at around $1,700,000 for under $1,000,000 on the lower Riviera. This is just one more reason why I love what I do!
