Property Description

This Riviera Summit mid-century retreat, set on approximately one acre, embodies a rare harmony of architecture and nature. Just minutes from downtown Santa Barbara and Montecito's shopping and dining, the serene multi-level residence is celebrated for its architectural significance, mountain vistas, sunrises and moonrises, and daily encounters with deer, hawks, and the evening song of coyotes. The home's open layout blends European sensibility with Santa Barbara's signature indoor-outdoor living, seamlessly connecting the main living, kitchen, and dining spaces—appointed with high-end appliances—to multiple view decks, ideal for year-round entertaining, al fresco dining, and relaxed lounging. Arrival is marked by a distinctive entry deck designed around two graceful oak trees, leading to a calming water fountain. Inside, expansive windows, beamed ceilings, and a striking stone fireplace frame mountain views that serve as living artwork. The private primary suite occupies its own level, offering a sitting area, fireplace, generous closet, flexible office space, and a secluded deck that heightens the sense of retreat. Its spa-like bath features a soaking tub with views to the natural surroundings. Freshly painted inside and out, with a new roof and gutters, the residence offers peace of mind along with timeless style. Bordered by Franceschi and Parma Parks, the home is immersed in nature with world-class hiking and cycling just outside the door. Below the residence, the gently sloping acre invites possibilities: a pool, orchard, enhanced landscaping, or an ADU with existing design plans and site approvals, an opportunity to expand this mid-century gem into a multi-generational enclave or guest retreat.
