Step into an oasis of calm at this beautifully restored East Valley Road retreat, ideally situated just moments from Montecito’s Upper Village. Originally built in 1883, the 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom main home, complete with a separate 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom guest cottage, seamlessly blends historic appeal with modern sophistication—creating a space that’s both timeless and stylishly liveable.

Throughout the home, soothing earth tones and coastal hues exude a feeling of serenity while thoughtfully designed interiors balance warmth and refinement. The living area, anchored by a stunning stone fireplace, connects to a sunlit dining room, where French doors invite the outdoors in. Just off the dining room is the central kitchen—a moody yet polished statement of elegance, showcasing distinctive design details and craftsmanship. Just beyond, a full laundry room offers additional convenience.

Tucked away in its own private corner, the spacious ground-floor primary suite is a light-filled retreat with a tranquil ambiance and ample closet space. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms and a dedicated office/media room provides a flexible layout suited for both work and family. Set on a tastefully landscaped 0.6 acre lot, the expansive yard is an idyllic space for al fresco entertaining and relaxation.

Positioned away from the main house, a 540 square feet guest cottage offers a private retreat for visitors, enhancing the property’s versatility. Set behind private gates, tall hedges, and a newly installed sound wall, the property offers ample parking, sprawling grass, fruit trees, and vegetable beds. With understated luxury and modern elegance, this Montecito gem invites you to settle in and savor the effortless beauty of California living.
