528 Arroyo Avenue

You will love this quintessential Mesa home on a quiet street off the beaten bath but just blocks from Leadbetter Beach. The large and private lot (.23 acre) offers a 3 bedroom/2 bath main residence complete w/vaulted, white-washed wood ceilings and a cozy fireplace in the living room as well as a charming ''artist'' studio cottage built with permits in 2007 complete with a half bath. The main house has just been re-roofed and includes copper rain gutters and sky lights. A wall of windows & doors face the south, arbor-covered patio, which fills the main living area with natural light and extends the living space to take full advantage of Santa Barbara's indoor/outdoor lifestyle. With easy access to down town, SBCC, and all that the Mesa and West Beach has to offer, the location offers a wonderful combination of privacy and convenience. Fresh paint, fruit trees, updated easy-care landscaping and a jacuzzi in the back patio garden, complete this charming Mesa retreat.
