Property Description
Enjoy a seamless blend of design, comfort, and everyday ease in this beautifully remodeled mid-century modern home! Featured in Dwell Magazine, the single-level Bel Air Knolls residence combines striking architecture, private outdoor space, and substantial improvements to create a home that feels both refined and effortlessly livable. Recent seller upgrades include a new roof, new solar with a Tesla Powerwall and EV charger, fiber optic connectivity, and newly installed fencing for enhanced privacy and usability. Inside, vaulted ceilings in the main living areas create an open and airy ambiance, while wide-plank European oak floors throughout the home add elegance and durability. A 14-foot panoramic sliding door creates a natural indoor-outdoor flow from the living and dining spaces to the numerous patio areas and curated gardens beyond inviting quiet mornings in the sun or relaxed evenings under the stars. Surrounding the property are a variety of mature fruit trees and verdant landscaping. A gas fire pit and a cedar-plank spa offer irresistible opportunities for entertaining or simply unwinding in total privacy. The open and spacious chef's kitchen features custom cabinetry, high-end appliances, brass fixtures, and an oversized quartz waterfall island with counter seating perfect for casual breakfasts or gathering with friends over a gourmet meal. The primary suite is an alluring private retreat with a custom walk-in closet, direct patio access, and a spa-inspired bath finished in Italian terrazzo with dual vanities and a walk-in shower. Three additional bedrooms ensure ample room for family, guests, or an office. Additional amenities include a climate-controlled finished garage with new epoxy flooring well-suited for a gym, studio, or creative workspace. Conveniently located near the Mesa, Elings Park, the beach, Downtown, & more, this turnkey residence offers the ideal home base from which to enjoy carefree living and the everyday magic of coastal Santa Barbara.
