Santa Barbara style meets ''location, location, location''. This modern colonial-style home features protected, ocean-views from all floors combined with artisan craftsmanship. Located within walking distance of the beach, the area's best grocery store, and the burgeoning gourmet-ghetto area of ''Otro Lado'', this property, with 3600 sq. ft. of homes, offers a harmonious blend of timeless character while integrating modern updates. All rooms are large in the two-bedroom primary house, with an open kitchen, living and dining area that is perfect for entertaining large groups of friends or family.

Supplements: Next to the main house is a separate second-story casita with a 160-degree ocean view. The living area sits on top of a large two-car garage and laundry room. Separating the main house and casita is an open area that can be used for gardening, bocce ball, or to construct a swimming pool or a two-bedroom casita if rental income is of interest. The property is completely walled-in, which provides serenity, security and privacy. Enter through one of two private gates where lush, mature, landscaped paths and garden areas lead you to the first of many shaded patios. In the main house, traditional Saltillo tile floors, handcrafted barro roof tiles and elaborate oak entry doors greet you. Step inside the ground level, introducing an open-concept floor plan that seamlessly blends the foyer into the cozy living space with a fireplace leading into a spacious kitchen adorned by handcrafted tile accents. The adjacent dining room for ten guests is illuminated by a custom chandelier perfect for that holiday dinner party. Next to that is a wine room with wrought iron doors and storage for 56 bottles and a white wine refrigerator. Leaving the kitchen, discover a spacious family room bordered by hand-hewn wooden barn doors open to the home's manicured grounds, seamlessly integrating indoor and outdoor living. This is where the cooking magic happens, featuring a custom barbecue gas-grill, Big Green Egg Komodo-style grill, and a dining table for six. An adjacent living room sectional makes this the primary summer-time entertaining area. Around the corner is a forty-foot colonnade that features a large ocean-view table able to seat 12 people. The first of two en-suite bedrooms enters from the downstairs covered patio into an intimate space with queen bed, leather equipal chairs perfect for nighttime reading and a comfortable three piece bathroom. The second story bedroom has a four-poster bed perfect for watching whales pass by, a separate room for office or baby, and two large, ocean-view patios, one curtained for a private workout. Architectural features of this unique home include beamed ceilings, traditional boveda arched brick in the breezeway, and numerous windows that perfectly frame the tranquil views of the Pacific Ocean in the distance and lush vegetation in the adjacent gardens.
