A rare find unlike anything you've seen--this meticulously rebuilt manufactured home stands in a class of its own. Torn down to the platform in 2000, expanded and rebuilt ''like new'', it has been further modernized between 2017 and 2025. This stunning knoll-top residence captures breathtaking mountain and sky views from its towering windows that are framed by 11-foot vaulted ceilings. It features an open-concept living area with wrap-around floor-to-ceiling windows and abundant natural light. Impeccably maintained, the home showcases a remodeled kitchen and two remodeled bathrooms, as well as a light-filled ''flex area'' that can be used as an office or workout space. The home has an interior laundry room and ample storage space within enclosed areas over the closets and laundry. The roof, A/C, furnace & ducting, gas fireplace insert, and most windows are either new or recently redone. The plumbing and electrical systems have been upgraded, the interior has been repainted, and the redwood decks newly stained. The exterior features a paver driveway and frontage, custom storage shed, and updated siding and paint. Peaceful, private, and centrally located, this home is truly turnkey and offers a project-free, lock-and-leave retreat that lets you settle in and enjoy your next chapter. The home was expanded in a way that preserved its exempt status, resulting in no property taxes and only a small annual HCD fee. Experience the best of Santa Barbara living within one of its most desirable gated, 55+ communities. Included in space rent are resort-style amenities: a year-round heated pool and jetted spa, fitness center, two fenced dog parks, private golf course, and clubhouse.
