This one-of-a-kind circa 1945 Santa Barbara Spanish home has been given new life by the design team at Cove House. A meticulous redesign and remodel has converted this original 2+2 home into a 3+3 sanctuary.

Situated on a .25 acre lot, this gem has been detailed to perfection with impeccable design while offering breathtaking views of the Riviera, Mission Canyon and the Santa Ynez Mountains. This spectacular layout boasts indoor-outdoor Santa Barbara Living and is truly an entertainer's dream come true.

High-end finishes include imported raw brass fixtures from Morocco, custom kitchen lighting from London, Italian appliances, vintage exterior lighting from the 1930's, copper gutters, a clay tile roof and custom wood garage door. The Cove House team focused on preserving the beauty of this 1945 Spanish home with raw veneer plaster walls throughout the entire house, while also utilizing contemporary materials like a 13' bifold door opening the entire living room to the huge backyard. Giving you a magical indoor-outdoor feeling. Finished with wide plank white oak floors, modern cement Zia tiles in the bathrooms, and custom, handcrafted Scandinavian-inspired oak vanities designed by Cove House. This home exudes Santa Barbara charm and history while also evoking a modern yet classic experience.

This home has infinite potential with an enormous backyard perfect for an ADU and pool. There is also a separate office/studio in the backyard which would make a wonderful detached office, workout room, or kid's playroom.

There are multiple outdoor living spaces which allow the perfect home for hosting, multi-family living and privacy. Outdoor living spaces include the sprawling backyard, front private courtyard with wall and gate, and a master bedroom patio.


The layout of this home seamlessly lends itself for optimized privacy of each room. The master bedroom is on one side of the home with its own en-suite master bath, walk-in closet and patio. While the other two bedrooms reside across the home in their own private hallway with a room on either side. Two out of the three bedrooms have stunning French doors leading to the outdoor spaces.

The location of the home is a dream. While you feel removed in your quiet little oasis, once you leave the property you are minutes away from Trader Joe's, Handlebar coffee, Starbucks, Los Agave, Whole Foods and other restaurants & shops.

This is the perfect move-in-ready home for someone looking for an elevated, designer living experience in an ideal location.
