An exceptionally rare Mesa offering—two adjacent coastal residences spanning approximately .24 acres and totaling 2,700 square feet with 6 bedrooms and 4 baths—just one block from the beach, presenting a once-in-a-generation opportunity for multi-home living, legacy ownership, or high-performing investment in one of Santa Barbara's most coveted neighborhoods. Located on the prized Santa Barbara Mesa near Leadbetter Beach, the Harbor, Shoreline Park, and Santa Barbara City College, this unique pairing of two fully remodeled homes offers flexibility, scale, and lifestyle appeal that is almost never available so close to the sand. Together, the properties combine architectural sophistication, modern comfort, and outstanding rental demand within the highly sought-after Washington School ..District.
209 Barranca Avenue is an exquisitely redesigned coastal retreat, taken down to the studs and rebuilt with permits. This 2-bedroom, 2-bath home (with an additional extra bedroom/office/loft in the detached garage) showcases vaulted ceilings, exposed steel and wood beams, and a dramatic peninsula fireplace anchoring the open living space. The gourmet kitchen, seamless indoor/outdoor flow through dual French doors, and a luxurious primary suite with European-inspired spa bath elevate the home to a truly refined coastal residence. Outside, a private, lushly landscaped yard features multiple entertaining patios, a luxury spa, and a heated outdoor showercreating a serene, resort-like setting just moments from the beach.
1102 Del Mar complements the offering with a beautifully remodeled 4-bedroom, 2-bath home on a corner lot, just a three-minute walk to Leadbetter Beach. Thoughtfully updated with new bathrooms, kitchen, appliances, electrical panel, air conditioning, dual-pane windows, and drought-tolerant landscaping, the home features an airy open-concept layout filled with natural light. The private backyard is an entertainer's sanctuary with a 5-6 person jacuzzi, gas fire table, and multiple seating areas, while the fully fenced front yard beneath a mature jacaranda tree provides security and charm for families and pets alike.
Together, these two adjacent properties offer unmatched versatilityideal for extended family living, owner-occupancy with income potential, or a strategic investment portfolio in one of Santa Barbara's most consistently desirable coastal locations.
