The home features 3 bedrooms and 3 baths, with a layout that flows naturally out to an expansive private terrace, over 2,000 square feet of usable outdoor space. It's a rare setup and truly becomes an extension of the living area, whether you're hosting friends, dining outside, or just enjoying a quiet morning or evening, or want an opportunity to show off your green thumb. Inside, the spaces feel open and livable, with a great balance between shared areas and private rooms. The updated kitchen adds a fresh, functional touch, while a fireplace creates a warm and inviting focal point in the living space. Being on the ground floor also makes everything feel especially accessible and connected to the outdoors... ...Just moments from Butterfly Beach and the Biltmore, this quiet, south-facing ground-floor unit offers an easy, comfortable way to enjoy Montecito living. Tucked in a peaceful part of the complex, immediately adjacent to the gardens at the Music Academy of the West, it feels private and relaxed while still being incredibly close to the best of the Lower Village dining and shopping. The community includes a pool, a gated security garage, and the property is located within the Montecito Union School District. With the beach, world-class resorts, and nearby shops and restaurants just a short distance away, it's an ideal spot for full-time living or a weekend retreat.
