Enveloped in layered foliage, meandering koi ponds, and tropical hardwoods, this 2,948-square-foot Santa Barbara home breathes a meditative calm from interior to garden. Set on 0.45 acres, the 3BD/2.5BA residence enjoys an elevated setting immersed in nature, with mountain views and leafy outlooks throughout. Bamboo groves, approximately 1,500 square feet of wraparound ipe wood decking, gentle falls over koi, and an imported Balinese tea house shape the garden. Inside, the foyer sets the tone: vaulted ceilings rise overhead, while an intricately carved floral mandala adorns a sliding wood door. Smooth grouted river stones underfoot lend an organic counterpoint; folding glass doors frame a lush composition of botanicals and landscape beyond. Natural texture continues to soften contemporary lines through the interiors. In the circular great room, minimalist cable lighting threads rough-hewn beams beneath tongue-and-groove ceilings, while engineered wide-plank oak floors carry that richness throughout. The chef's kitchen pairs Autunnale quartzite counters with painted oak cabinetry, a Wolf double oven, and Sub-Zero fridge, while a loft above forms an office perch looking out to the scenery. In the primary suite, a teak-floored shower and soaking tub overlook the landscape, with a hot tub tucked into the decking just beyond. River stone becomes a recurring motif - loose black pebbles encircle the bathtub, grouted mosaics floor both full baths, and they resurface as an accent across the grounds. Unexpected details emerge quietly throughout, from the blue-glazed ceramic tile roof etched with birds to carved woodwork and subtle hints of color. A discreet shed settles into the terrain, and the detached two-car garage, with an additional half bath, offers intriguing ADU potential. Situated in the highly regarded Foothill School attendance area and moments from Upper State Street, the property pairs a convenient location with a setting that feels worlds away.
