Located in the highly desirable Samarkand neighborhood, this charming 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom California cottage presents an opportunity to create your ideal Santa Barbara home. Set on a spacious 0.15-acre lot, the 943-square-foot residence has been lovingly maintained by the same family since the 1960s and is ready for its next chapter.

Inside, you'll find a cozy living room with a gas fireplace, a large kitchen with a dining area, and an indoor laundry space. Move in and enjoy it as is or take advantage of the lot size and layout to renovate, expand, add an ADU or reimagine the property to suit your needs. A detached 2-car garage and carport provide added parking and storage flexibility. Samarkand is a vibrant neighborhood known for its welcoming community, where neighbors stroll tree-lined streets, gather at MacKenzie Park, enjoy coffee at Handlebar, or explore the shops and restaurants along the De La Vina Corridor. With close proximity to downtown Santa Barbara, local beaches, and within the Adams School attendance area, this location offers the best of coastal living and community charm.
