Perched in a quiet corner of Santa Barbara’s Riviera, providing dazzling views of the city and harbor below, this jewel of a home, inspired by old world Italy, contains a treasure around every corner. First built in the 1920s, the 4-bedroom, 4.5 bath home has been elegantly renovated by Lori Smyth with exclusive details throughout. The inviting living and dining rooms are optimally situated for the enjoyment of the views, though guests might possibly be more intrigued by the original painted and tiled niche above the living room’s hearth. Immediately off the kitchen is a wrap-around terrace with built-in barbecue area, and an adjacent family room houses a built-in entertainment system. The three bedroom suites on the first level all contain unique baths far from the standard norm. The master suite, located up a short flight of stairs, feels like a world of its own. Elegantly hand-stenciled walls and ceilings, a beautiful fireplace, and cozy reading alcove with antique stained-glass window create a natural place to relax and unwind. French doors lead out to a loggia with fireplace, a place made for curling up and enjoying each day’s setting sun.
