At the heart of the home, the well-appointed kitchen is equipped with a six-burner cooktop, double ovens, a large center island with a prep sink and seating for five, and a dedicated dining area just off the kitchen. The grounds offer a peaceful Santa Barbara setting with mature olive trees, vibrant bougainvillea, fresh lawns, a variety of fruit trees, and a functioning koi pond. Covered and open patios create inviting spaces for outdoor dining and entertaining, while the expansive backyard offers ample room to add a pool and pool house without compromising the spectacular mountain views. Additional features include central air conditioning, an attached two-car garage with an epoxy floor, and inclusion within the highly regarded Mountain View School attendance area. With its elevated setting, exceptional privacy, sweeping ocean and mountain views, flexible floor plan, and expansive 1.1-acre parcel, this is a rare opportunity to own a home that offers an exceptional lifestyle today and lasting value for years to come.
