About Eucalpytus

Hill

Eucalpytus Hill, located between Montecito and the Santa Barbara Waterfront, is a hillside and residential Santa Barbara neighborhood with ocean-view streets and winding canyon lanes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Coast Village Road corridor, where espresso bars, galleries, and locally run boutiques set a polished, walkable rhythm. Spanish Colonial Revival estates and mid-century homes sit behind mature eucalyptus and palms, with terraced gardens on steep lots. The blufftop edge near Shoreline Park frames daily routines with coastal paths and open lawns. Lotusland and the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History anchor the area’s cultural calendar. The setting balances quiet streets with a strong pull toward the coast and downtown.

RS-25

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.
