About this home

Charming Westside Cottage circa 1930! With +/- 1,098 square feet, this two bedroom, one bathroom retreat exudes an early 1900s Santa Barbara charm. This delightfully updated cottage has kept the integrity of its vintage architecture with all of its wonderful details, oak floors, romantic fireplace and numerous upgrades. On a double lot located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, you will forget you are in the heart of town, just moments from all downtown Santa Barbara has to offer. Sit back and enjoy a quiet country feel with mountain views, as the extra-large shaded backyard warmly embraces you with its serene privacy. A gardenerÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s paradise, this cottage has been lovingly re-landscaped with a variety of specimen plantings and fruit bearing trees, way too many to list!

RS-6

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
Housing-Group
Housing-Single unit
Housing-Multiple units
