American Riviera treasure! This Mid-Century Modern home with 4 bedrooms and 2 baths focuses on phenomenal views of the islands, downtown Santa Barbara, the ocean and mountains. Both memorable and unique, this 2,129sf home on 0.17 acres was designed and built in 1962 by local architect, Kenneth Kruger, for himself and his family. Architectural notes include, thin plank wood ceilings that stretch to the outdoors, tongue and groove plank walls with copper tongue detail, bamboo flooring and floor to ceiling windows, which all add to a warm interior feel. A glass enclosed front patio and hedged in garden, with an oak tree, offer outdoor spaces for quiet enjoyment and entertainment. Located minutes from downtown, this, exemplary, Mid-Century classic is close to schools and shops.

RS-15
One-Family Residence Zone
This zone is intended to provide areas for single-unit housing on individual lots at appropriate low densities of one unit per legal lot with allowances for an Accessory Dwelling Unit or Two-Unit Residential Development when certain standards are met. Designators (e.g. -25, -15) refer to minimum lot size in thousands of square ft or, in the case of RS-1A, acres. The regulations for the RS Zone are intended to limit activities which would be inharmonious with or injurious to the preservation and character of a residential environment. Nonresidential uses are limited to those that support daily life of neighborhoods and complement surrounding residential development. Nonresidential uses are strictly limited in order to mitigate impacts associated with nonresidential uses such as: traffic, increased parking demand, light, glare, and noise.
Permitted uses
Include but are not limited to:
Agriculture
Livestock production
Garden center
