A laid-back bungalow two blocks from the Mesa Lane Steps and beach access, this home earns its keep in the backyard – a fully enclosed retreat with a covered lanai, hammock, and a fire pit for when the evening cools. Elings Park sits directly across the road, with hiking and mountain bike trails on the doorstep, and when the draw of Santa Barbara's waterfront or State Street calls, both are a twelve-minute drive. Back inside, the beamed living room and its central fireplace make for a natural gathering point once the sun goes down.

About Santa Barbara

With its breezy European vibe, sophisticated hangouts, glitzy marina and celebrity pulling power, it’s little wonder Santa Barbara is called the American Riviera – this very civilised city is the Californian take on the Côte d'Azur. The pedestrianised 10-block stretch of downtown State Street is where you’ll find most of the action – white stucco buildings with Mediterranean-style terracotta roofs house discerning Cali jean brands, swish ceramics stores and cool...
