That was the Santa Barbara Riviera when this timeless property was built. And now, the hallmarks of that distant time have been carefully preserved within this beautiful craftsman home & guest house with ocean views. Every inch meticulously updated with modern amenities, systems & upgrades; an oasis at the epicenter of the Riviera's most desired locations. Within reach of Orpet Park and the El Encanto Hotel, it's mere minutes to Downtown & the Mission. Hidden behind mature trees & lovingly restored for the next generation, this property's warmth, architecture & style beckon to a bygone era, calling you home.
