First time offered in over 30 years! Located in Santa Barbara's highly desirable San Roque neighborhood, this charming 1940 cottage offers 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and over 1,700 sq. ft. of living space, combining vintage character with a surprisingly spacious and versatile floor plan. The bedrooms are generously proportioned and feature built-in closets and storage, while a bank of hallway linen closets provides additional storage. The inviting living room features newly refinished hardwood floors, a traditional fireplace and adjoining dining alcove. Hardwood floors also extend through the original front bedrooms. The kitchen retains much of its authentic 1940s character with original cabinetry and cupboards, vintage tile and a classic Wedgewood range. A permitted addition completed in 1984 expanded the original residence, creating the four-bedroom, two-bath configuration enjoyed today. Outside, a white picket fence welcomes you to the front garden with drought-tolerant landscaping and a charming vine-covered arbor. The backyard offers a patio, mature shade and fruit trees, and an inviting setting for outdoor enjoyment, while beautiful mountain views add to the property's appeal. Additional features include dual-pane windows throughout, central heating and air conditioning, a composition shingle roof and a detached two-car garage.
