This extra-large light and bright San Roque home is in a great location just a few blocks away from dining and shopping on Upper State St. Situated in the Monte Vista School District attendance area, the home offers approx. 2830 sq. ft. (per assessor's records) with four bedrooms, three baths, a two-car garage and a sparkly 45' long swimming pool with hot tub. The home has three large sliding glass doors to the patio offering the highly desirable indoor-outdoor Santa Barbara lifestyle. It is two stories with three bedrooms upstairs and one bedroom downstairs. There are dynamic mountain views from the upstairs balcony and the north facing windows upstairs frame the iconic La Cumbre Peak. Additionally, there are two bonus rooms upstairs and one bonus room downstairs. This ideal floor plan allows for a dedicated home office, media room, and guest room. The kitchen has been nicely updated with recessed lighting, abundant cabinets, and quality stone countertops. Two of the baths are updated; the master bath has a spacious shower with tasteful tile work. The home features two fireplaces, one in the family room and one in the living room. There is a formal dining area and there is a breakfast bar. The home sits up high in the subdivision giving it prominence and views. The lot is approx. 7840 sq. ft. and is substantially flat featuring mature Pinon Pines, Guava, citrus and pathways lined with rose bushes. This home is quite an exceptional offering and will make a wonderful home for the lucky buyer!

This house has the ideal floor plan for extended family, 2 families, multiple room mates etc! Uniquely arranged with rooms having separate entrances, and many more rooms than your average San Roque home, there is an opportunity here to make this a cash flow rental with a better than typical Cap Rate. The Pool & Hot Tub are a nice asset. The pool has been recently resurfaced.

RS-7.5
USS
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.
