930 Andante Rd, Santa Barbara, CA 93105

MID-CENTURY MODERN MASTERPIECE on a private lane in Mission Cyn. The 1964 Edwards & Pitman post-and-beam home is a secluded sanctuary on a wooded creekside acre. The multi-level, open floor plan is flooded with light. Brickwork, restored plank floors & rhythmic wood ceilings add linear flow & impeccable artistry. Updated kitchen retains mid-century charm, with modern amenities; step down into a den/office. The primary suite occupies the top floor with park-like views from the deck. Two bedrooms, playroom & full bath complete the lower level. Four stand-alone buildings include a sunny loft atop the garage, a large art studio & 2 petite cottages. Meticulously maintained to preserve its original integrity, this stunning property offers unparalleled peace moments from downtown's vibrancy.

Santa Barbara – Mission Canyon Mid Century Post and Beam by the Architectural firm of Edwards & Pitman 1964. http://vimeo.com/118350469 ''Approaching from the south, one is impressed with the similarity to a gigantic tree house by the flow of the plan from the top master bedroom, the segmentation of rooms, the balconies on every level, and the apparent lack of foundation due to lush planting. The tree house impression holds as one climbs turning stairs to the front door. The delight and intrigue of this house come from the fantasy, diversity and ingenuity of its plan. The interior grows from the irregular brick mass that gives a broad fireplace on place on the living room side. The rooms work out of this central mass as if hanging on different levels. The interior is finished with polished plank floors and a wonderful ceiling of alternating 2x2s and 2x3s that give linear flow. The house has been maintained and upgraded over the years while always respecting the original plans and details. The home is located on a flat parcel nestled at the vortex of Mission and Rattlesnake Creeks. You approach the property from a private road that ends at the motor court. The main house is complimented by four stand-alone buildings (Music studio, offices, game rooms) plus a 3-car garage. Mature Oaks & Sycamores and lush mature gardens surround the home. There is a full outdoor shower in the private bamboo garden. Must see video www.vimeo.com/117640530 Some thoughts on 930 Andante Road Mission Bells ringing. Creek flowing with its magical sounds.
