Welcome to 2900 Paseo del Refugio

Located at the end of a tranquil lane in one of Santa Barbara’s most desirable neighborhoods, this 1925 Spanish-style bungalow has been lovingly restored while preserving its vintage charm. This 1,286 square foot San Roque home on a 7,405 square foot corner lot in the highly sought-after Peabody School attendance area features three bedrooms and one bath, and is in easy proximity to restaurants, shopping, and hiking trails.

Broad steps, adorned with colorful accent tiles, lead to a Saltillo-tiled porch with a Southwest-style front door. Sunlight floods into the living room through a large picture window and a pair of original casement windows flank a wood-burning brick fireplace. An airy open floor plan, original oak floors throughout, and a graceful archway create seamless flow between the living room and dining room. A hallway off the dining room connects two bedrooms with walk-in closets, a full bathroom, and a floor-to-ceiling linen closet. A third bedroom features a recessed bookshelf and a window overlooking the garden. 

Another expansive archway crowns a Brazilian granite breakfast bar and leads into an architect-designed kitchen, which has been completely remodeled with such sustainable considerations as cork flooring, recycled glass Cosentino countertops, and elegant cherry wood cabinets that maximize storage space. All appliances are stainless steel and include a Bosch dishwasher, gas range, and built-in microwave. 

Sliding doors open from the dining room to a spacious flagstone patio, creating a natural extension of the home’s dining and entertaining spaces. An artisanal urn bubbler fountain is centered in a water-wise succulent garden, while the fresh fragrances of jasmine, orange blossoms and white sandalwood perfume the air. Subtle terracing creates distinct spaces within the garden, planted with a variety of trees and lush, yet drought-tolerant, landscaping. 

French doors lead from a second landscaped patio into the detached double garage, which features finished floors and walls, enabling office use or overflow guest space. Also accessible from the driveway through the original sliding barn-style doors, the garage has ample space for two cars, a workbench, an Energy Star-rated washer and dryer, and a laundry sink.
