Rare opportunity to purchase your dream home in this highly sought after gated Santa Barbara community! One of only 16 homes in Hitchcock Ranch, this community is tucked away from the busy roads, yet just minutes to the Upper State Street corridor which includes Whole Foods, La Cumbre Plaza, great schools, and easy access to the 101 freeway. Served by the coveted Hope School District, this 3 bed/3 bath move-in ready home has been immaculately maintained by the original owner. As you enter through the front door, you are greeted by an open floor plan with soaring ceilings and multiple levels to accommodate living, sleeping and work spaces for everyone in the family. The entry level includes two bedrooms (or office) and a full bathroom. The upper level offers a large primary bedroom with en-suite bathroom including dual vanity and large soaking tub. The adjacent loft on this upper level provides a quiet space for reading, an additional office space, or extra room for the occasional overnight guest. Downstairs from the entrance is the main living level with separate living room, dining area, kitchen with breakfast counter, a den and a full bathroom. For extended living space the kitchen opens to a peaceful deck surrounded by trees and greenery--the perfect place to enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning or lounge in the sun in the afternoon. There is even a place for "Fido" with a small dog run in the side yard. This is "the one" you have been waiting for!
