What This House Offers
** PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS A DUPLEX UNIT WITH A FEW COMMON WALLS AND A SHARED BACKYARD. **
Ideally located just three blocks from State Street in the heart of... downtown Santa Barbara, this gorgeous 4 bedroom/1.5 bath home in a 1925 Craftsman duplex has just undergone an extensive renovation that combines delightful architectural details with everyday functionality.
The sunny and spacious home has loads of old world charm, with a welcoming front porch, leaded glass double-paned windows, original wood floors, 9' high ceilings downstairs and Dutch ceilings up, original copper door hardware, communicating doors, and the original clawfoot bathtub with new period-appropriate shower fixtures. Updates/upgrades include a Rohl Allia fireclay kitchen sink, Aquabrass faucets, a Frigidaire Gallery refrigerator, and a West Elm chandelier.
The private front garden is fully fenced, lushly landscaped, and boasts a mature Haas avocado tree, while the fully enclosed back garden (shared with the duplex neighbor) features a sun-drenched flagstone patio. Large private side yard is fully fenced and provides plenty of outdoor storage space.
Onsite amenities include an organic community garden, shared laundry facilities, and bike parking. There are two uncovered off-street parking spaces for the home. Water, trash, sewer, and gardener included.
A great space for quiet, non-smoking/non-vaping tenants with good references and excellent credit.
$7,400/month. Deposit is equal to one month's rent.
One-year lease. Available July 10th.
