Elegant Corner-Lot Oasis in the Coveted Hope Ranch Annex Area
Offered for the First Time – One Family Ownership
Discover a rare opportunity to own a timeless gem in one of Santa Barbara’s most beloved, safe, and stable neighborhoods. Nestled on a beautifully landscaped ¼-acre corner lot across from the iconic palm-lined Modoc Nature Preserve, where property purchase makes you a shareholder. This elegant residence in the Hope Ranch Annex area exudes tranquility, comfort, and refined coastal charm.
Step inside the custom hand built front door to discover high-quality wood laminate flooring and custom tile work throughout. The inviting living room centers around a striking fireplace adorned with a custom sycamore mantle and colorful Talavera tile, trimmed in rich red oak and framed by bi-fold glass doors. A true focal point for cozy evenings or lively gatherings.
Outdoor living is simply unparalleled. Relax beneath the pergola, unwind in the spa, or gather around the fire feature in your private backyard oasis, surrounded by lush, mature landscaping. Sip your morning coffee or evening wine from either of the two covered patios, or two uncovered flagstone patios, while enjoying the serenity of tiered drought-tolerant gardens filled with palms, succulents, and an abundant array of fruit trees with limes, oranges, tangerines, guavas, grapefruits, and more. Your wonderful, mature, fruitless mulberry tree fully shades the useful sized lawn which balances outdoor enjoyment, practicality, and water conservation.
This home is located within the highly desirable Hope School District, with Vieja Valley Elementary just a short walk away, accompanied by a crossing guard for peace of mind. A new $10 million multi-use path is currently under construction along Modoc Road, offering direct access to the Obern Trail, Goleta Beach, Arroyo Burro Beach, and More Mesa Open Space. Perfect for nature lovers, cyclists, and outdoor enthusiasts.
This is more than a home, it’s a legacy. With only one owner since construction and very little turnover in this tightly held community, properties like this seldom become available. Don''t miss your chance to own a piece of paradise in one of Santa Barbara’s most treasured neighborhoods.
