**SEE PRIVATE REMARKS** Santa Barbara's American Riviera - A spectacular 1932 Henry Howell designed Spanish Colonial Revival home, sited on an awe-inspiring half acre with City, Harbor, Pacific Ocean and Channel Island views. The main house features four bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms. An expansive formal living room with south facing picture window allowing streams of natural light to flood the space, with focal point fireplace and original beam ceiling. The intimate formal dining room with French doors overlooking the al fresco dining terrace for year round enjoyment is a warm space with original touches. Breakfast room with fireplace and beautifully appointed kitchen looking out over the mature gardens, fountain and original 20th century stonework. This coveted vintage Riviera property has been lovingly restored and thoughtfully follows the architect's original plan.

Set among the wandering pathway gardens through the backyard, the property features a peaceful red tile roof one bedroom, one bathroom Guest House with kitchenette. Relax and read a book or take a contemplative moment in the Adirondack chairs while taking in the incredible views from this private perch.

Also featured on the west side of the property is a "La Calle," one of several neighborhood walking paths commonly found throughout the Riviera. 20th century Italian stonemasons created much of the wonderful stone walls and terraces in and around the Riviera. Mature Oak trees and thoughtful placement of drought tolerant native landscaping has been used for private, comfortable garden spaces to wander and enjoy the property. There is also a romantic wine cellar with temperature controlled wine storage. And a five hole putting green to practice your short game while sipping your favorite wine!

Time and space are the ultimate luxuries. Welcome to your Santa Barbara lifestyle!
