Résidence Unifamiliale à Santa Barbara

Tucked at end of a quiet, no-through street in Alta Mesa, this rare Spanish Casita Compound feels like a private world of its own.

The front home is a charming 3-bedroom, 1-bath Spanish residence, vintage in soul and tastefully updated so the original character remains. Cozy, traditional interiors glow with warm finishes, and picture-window seats that frame mountain views that make the rooms feel like a storybook sitting nook. Step outside to a private, enchanting patio, an evening retreat for Santa Barbara nights, a glass of wine, music, or a simple BBQ, with a complete sense of privacy that feels like you’ve left the modern world behind. A versatile basement with its own private entrance opens the imagination: wine cellar, music room, private office, gym, whatever you need, the space works.

Behind the main house, two additional Spanish-flavored dwellings complete the compound: 911 A (1 bedroom, 1 bath) and 911 B (2 bedrooms, 1 bath). Each with its own private outdoor space as well as in-unit laundry room.

Imagine living in the front house as a full-time Santa Barbara home or weekend getaway, while the back units generate income. Or keep the whole property as a family compound. On a generous lot with a rare, tucked-away setting, this is a must-see gem, an old-world casita escape that rarely comes available.
