Property Description

Offered for the first time in 40 years, this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own a panoramic ocean view property on the Mesa. Every so often, a property comes to market that captures what Santa Barbara living is all about, and this is one of them! Perched at the top of upper La Marina on a quiet cul-de-sac, this south-facing single-level residence enjoys breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean, the Channel Islands, the Santa Ynez Mountains, and the Santa Barbara Harbor. Set on an expansive 0.40-acre parcel, the home offers approximately 1,676 sq. ft. of living space with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, an attached two-car garage, and a paver driveway. With an irreplaceable setting and jaw-dropping ocean views, this rare fixer provides an exceptional canvas to create your dream home! Whether you wish to preserve the home's easy-living, single-level design or create a larger custom residence, the possibilities are endless. Inside, the home features open-beam vaulted ceilings in the main living area, tile flooring, and large picture windows that beautifully frame the spectacular ocean views. Enjoy the beauty of every hour, from stunning eastern sunrises to unforgettable Pacific sunsets that transform the ocean and sky. The backyard features a dipping pool on the west side of the property, while the terraced hillside provides multiple opportunities for gardens, fruit trees, outdoor entertaining spaces, or peaceful viewing areas. At the top of the property, an incredible lookout offers yet another place to soak in the sweeping coastal vistas. Mature trees and natural landscaping create a peaceful sense of privacy, making this property feel like a secluded retreat while remaining just minutes from all that the Mesa has to offer.
