Description

Two freestanding, well-maintained homes on one lot in a quiet corner of Santa Barbara's Westside, centrally located near downtown, the Mesa, and the beach. Situated on a street-to-street R2 parcel, each unit is a single-family home with its own driveway & individual metering. 1318 Kowalski, built in 2000, is a bright 2-story, 3-bedroom / 2-full bath home with beautiful flooring, handsome kitchen, large bedrooms with walk-in closets, private back yard and an immaculate garage with laundry area. Move-in ready and currently vacant, it is a great option as either an owner-occupied home or highly desirable rental. The second home, 1317 Gillespie, is currently rented and can only be shown by appointment. (Please do not disturb tenants!) This classic cottage boasts wood floors, an updated kitchen

Supplements: laundry room, one-car garage and private back yard. Meticulous care over the years makes this signature property a pride of ownership holding in any real estate portfolio.
