Temporarily withdrawn. From the pages of a storybook is Ballard Cottage. Substantially refurbished with a nod to a bygone era this lovely 1940's bungalow is one of a limited number in the 1880's hamlet of Ballard. Light and bright throughout with two bedrooms and one bath, the main cottage has a raised-seam metal roof and an attached drive-thru carport - frequently used as a gathering spot for lively conversation and cocktails with friends. At the rear garden area you'll find a sunny studio with newly permitted 1/2 bath, exposed-truss ceiling, and insulated metal roof. The deceptively large lot is .29 acre with fruit trees, ornamental and native plantings, and various areas for lounging. Nearby you can enjoy two new dining experiences; The Gathering Table at the Ballard Inn, and the much anticipated Bob's Well Bread for coffee, pastries, breads and more. Within 1.5 miles you'll find fresh, organic produce at the Finley Farm Stand. Historic Ballard School and its Little Red Schoolhouse are nearby as well. Experience the bucolic lifestyle of the Santa Ynez Valley in the town of Ballard, first settled in 1882.
