RALPH WALDO EMERSON....said it best --- “Every sunset brings the promise of a new dawn”. The completion of a day well-lived, with many memories, and the hope and promise of all that tomorrow can bring. This Sunset Road home wants to be there with you for a new dawn, a new beginning. Ideally located near La Cumbre mall shopping, restaurants, bus lines and quality schools (Monte Vista District), this San Roque 3-bd, 2-bath cottage is ready to begin again and needs your TLC to make it happen. Remember, Santa Barbara is known for its sunsets!
