Updated 3BR/2BA craftsman home sits on an almost 1/4 acre lot on a tree-lined street in downtown SB! Recent upgrades include refinished hardwood floors, new plumbing & electrical. Remodeled baths with walk-in showers, new fixtures & granite counters. The large lot provides space to build out the 2BR/2BA condos with a 6-car garage for excellent income-earning ability with entitled plans, if you want! A lush lawn and inviting wraparound porch welcome you to the 3BR/2BA craftsman home. The porch features built-in seating and planter. A brick fireplace is the focal point of the living room along with large windows that flood the room with light. The dining room has a similar picture window, as well as a pocket door that can close it off from the living room. A spacious built-in china hutch in the dining room is ideal for serving your guests. The kitchen features original cabinets for period character. The bedrooms have wood floors, large windows and closets. The master bedroom also has exterior access to the rear yard, and a completely renovated bathroom with a new granite counter vanity and tiled walk-in shower with a frame-less glass enclosure. The hall bath has just been added and also features dual sinks and a large walk-in shower. A laundry room off the kitchen makes an excellent mudroom with access to the outdoors and the nearby single garage. Other recent upgrades include refinished hardwood floors, new plumbing and electrical.
Entitled plans are available to add two 2BR/2BA condos on top of a 6-car garage (2 for each unit). The entitlements for the project are good until January, 2018 with no Inclusionary Housing In-Lieu fees. The units are 1358 and 1581 gross square feet, as designed. Both will be built on top of the planned garages, and one will face south with views from the Mesa to Montecito with a peek of the ocean. The other will have incredible views of the Riviera and mountains behind.
The home is less than a mile from Paseo Nuevo shopping and restaurants, one mile from the Mission and Rose Garden and 1.5 miles from Chase Palm Park at East Beach. This puts nearly all of downtown Santa Barbara within an easily reachable distance, including the up and coming Funk Zone.
Whether you have been searching for the classic and central Santa Barbara craftsman style home, or are hoping to have some upside potential for income, this property has it all.
