*** For Statistical Purposes** 871 Summit Road is a 2.13-acre lot featuring a charming 1941 cottage in near-original condition. Gravity heat, stand alone appliances, galvanized pipes, plenty of old wiring, pipes, etc. uneven floors. Quite the fixer and at 1,200 SF not a good candidate to fix up, or expand, as it is too small. The property on the other hand offers stunning views overlooking the Montecito Club and extends out to the Pacific Ocean. Access was over a charming, but constricting, pedestrian only bridge. Surrounded by mature trees and open, undeveloped land, this exceptional property is situated in a highly sought-after Montecito neighborhood, offering ample potential for future development. Sold as lot value.

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.
