Description

Exquisite European Carriage House
on the Riviera

Located above the iconic Santa Barbara Mission and its beloved Rose Gardens, 2040 Mission Ridge sits in one of the most storied and charming neighborhoods in all of Santa Barbara. Timeless stone-lined streets wind through this historic Riviera enclave, leading to an estate that feels lifted from the French countryside--private, gated, elegant, and filled with Old World charm.

Surrounded by historic estates, this 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom residence is reminiscent of Provence, a rare offering exuding the character and grace of Santa Barbara's 1920's golden era. Once a gathering place for the city's social elite, this property is a true sanctuary, surrounded by lush manicured walking paths and gardens, a variety of fruit trees, meticulously crafted stone details, and intimate outdoor spaces that invite reflection and entertaining alike.

The primary suite is a peaceful retreat, while vintage detailsarched doorways, iron accents, and hand-troweled plaster walls with soaring ceilingsevoke sophisticated craftsmanship. And though you'll feel miles away in this Montecito-style setting, downtown Santa Barbara's renowned restaurants, theaters, and cultural destinations are conveniently minutes away.

Located steps from the prestigious El Encanto Hotel and Riviera Park Theatre District, this is a rare chance to own a piece of Santa Barbara history in one of its most prestigious neighborhoods.
