The open design and circular flow of the downstairs living space is also equally amenable to family activities or entertaining, offering easy access to the delightful back yard through French doors off the dining and family rooms.  The sunny, centrally located kitchen adds to the French Country ambience with its soft cocoa Brookhaven cabinets, custom hand honed counters, and earth-tone porcelain tile floor.  On one side a breakfast bar with pendant lighting borders the extra large family room and on the opposite side, the ample dining room sparkles with a designer Handleman chandelier.  

Upstairs, a long central hallway connects the 5 bedrooms.  The spacious master has lovely views of the lush private backyard and woodsy hillside, paneled wainscoting and double walk-in closets.  Tasteful accents of decorative tile adorn the master bath’s tiled shower, tub and vanity.  All the bedrooms have ceiling fans, large custom sliding windows, crown molding and roomy double door closets with built-ins. The large hall bathroom has an attractive and generously sized walk-in tile shower with high windows for natural light & ventilation.

Located in the premier area of Bel Air Knolls, this elegant home is surrounded by a safe and friendly neighborhood. Less than a mile away is Arroyo Burro, one of Santa Barbara’s most beautiful beaches, the chic Boathouse Restaurant & Bar, the Douglas Wildlife Reserve and Elings Park complete with trails, picnic areas, tennis courts and soccer fields. Equally accessible are three convenient shopping areas: the Mesa, 5 Points and downtown.
