Elevated and Chic Riviera Home with Stunning City & Ocean Views!
This newly remodeled home is ideally situated just below Alameda Padre Serra, the spectacular rim drive that runs along the foothills of Santa Barbara, "America's Riviera." An oasis in the heart of it all—relax in the hot tub on the upper deck by the NEW pool while soaking in views of the sparkling Pacific!
With three suites and two living rooms, the floor plan is ideal. Windows capture the ocean view in the living room, though it may be the enormous 80" tv screen that will attract the eager guest who wants to indulge in a bit of vacation binge-watching! Step down to the dramatic library and enjoy a good read in front of the enclosed gas-log fireplace. Just off this distinguished alcove is a newly added suite, the extra benefit of which is a private entrance that thoughtfully adds autonomy and privacy.
The spacious, traditional kitchen with a host of culinary supplies, professional appliances, a generous island, and an adjacent dining area offers the undeniable opportunity to execute an evening of fine dining or a quick breakfast on the go. However, it is evident from the array of small appliances and the irresistible inscription on the mugs what the owners' true love really is..."But first, coffee!"
The family room with fireplace is a cheerful, sunny space, the focal point of which is the floor-to-ceiling picture window under the vaulted truss beam ceiling, once again framing the undeniably stunning view. Mix up a tasty cocktail or two, and head out through the French doors to the south-facing garden, where lounge chairs and a porch swing offer the perfect vantage point to enjoy the garden and the ocean backdrop. The primary suite at the far end of the home also opens to this same patio and has an intrinsic restful quality; a luxurious king-size bed rests under a soaring vaulted ceiling with dual ceiling fans. The attached sunroom with fireplace will quickly become the coveted spot to steal away for an afternoon nap on the day bed or partake in some rejuvenating yoga, illuminated by the sunshine pouring through the wall of windows. Completing the sleeping accommodations is a guest bedroom in cooling sage tones with another king-size bed and en suite bathroom.
Nearly every room opens to the property grounds making this home suitable for all to enjoy that indoor-outdoor experience. The raised stone terrace is a perfect perch to take in the scenic views or daydream in the double hammock. A dining terrace adjacent to the sunroom and kitchen includes a built-in barbecue, a portable heater, and comfortable seating in front of the outdoor fireplace. For those traveling with an electric car, the garage is equipped with a Tesla charger to ensure you are always ready for an adventure or daytrip into wine country!
As sure as the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, Riviera Dawn captures the true essence of why travelers return again and again to Santa Barbara. High above it all on the Riviera, but still close enough to town to quickly be at a favorite coffee shop, or trendy boutique in minutes, life is a gift here.
