Description
Ready to make every day feel like a getaway? At 1428 Manitou Road, mornings begin with coffee and sunrise ocean peeks from the balcony, afternoons are spent floating in the private saltwater pool or gathering around the outdoor kitchen, and evenings end beside the fireplace--all from the comfort of home.
Perched above Santa Barbara in the coveted Bel Air Knolls neighborhood, this thoughtfully updated mid-century modern residence captures the effortless indoor-outdoor lifestyle the area is known for. A flexible floor plan flows naturally to multiple outdoor living spaces, creating a home that's equally suited to quiet mornings, lively entertaining, and everything in between.
Recent upgrades include white oak flooring, central air conditioning, and a beautifully reimagined
Supplements: primary bathroom. The kitchen blends timeless style with everyday function, offering shaker cabinetry, honed quartz countertops, and newer appliances. The spacious primary suite features a walk-in closet and a spa-like bath with direct access to a private outdoor stone shower. Designed for year-round enjoyment, the backyard feels like a private resort. A saltwater pool with Baja shelf and cascading waterfall spa is framed by mature landscaping, while the fully equipped outdoor kitchen--with a built-in barbecue, sink, refrigerator, generous prep space, and bar seating--makes hosting as effortless as the setting itself. Ideally located just minutes from downtown Santa Barbara, the Mesa, Hendry's Beach, and Elings Park, you'll have easy access to many of the area's favorite destinations--though you may find yourself wanting to stay right where you are. With timeless architecture, carefully considered updates, and outdoor spaces that invite you to slow down and enjoy every season, 1428 Manitou Road offers a home that feels as exceptional as the lifestyle it creates.
