About this property
A Shore Thing
A Shore Thing with its proximity to the beach and downtown offers a great escape to Santa Barbara. Just a short walk to the beach and Shoreline Park, where you can wiggle your toes in the sand or find oceanside walking paths and playground for the little ones. A bit further on is Stearns Wharf and Santa Barbara Harbor with restaurants, seafood market, shopping, cruises, whale watching and watersport rentals.
Should you decide to stay put and just relax at this four bed / three bath home, you can do so poolside while enjoying the outdoor BBQ for alfresco dining under the shaded pergola, then unwind in the jacuzzi while stargazing under the night sky. For indoor entertaining, the chef has a bright open kitchen area to flaunt culinary skills while guests socialize around the large island. If you must work, there are two workstations with privacy and reliable connectivity.
At the end of the day, retreat to the upstairs master suite. Enjoy the peek-a-boo ocean and island views from the private balcony. As you drift off to sleep, listen to the crashing waves and an occasional sea lion barking in the distance.
Santa Barbara attractions like the Urban Wine Trail, the Funk Zone, the Mission, museums and many diversions of State Street are all within a short drive.
Making happy memories here is A Shore Thing.
