SAMARKAND
The Land Of Heart's Desire
2813 Clinton Terrace

Named after Clinton B. Hale, Harry A. Hollister's son-in-law around 1920 in what is now one of Santa Barbara's most desirable neighborhoods.  Entering from the south on Treasure Drive where 2 highway robbers buried saddlebags full of gold (hence the name) and later killed each other in a saloon brawl in Ventura, the gold presumably still awaits a finder.  You will strike it rich at this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home situated on an 8,000 plus sq. ft. lot in one of Santa barbara's most coveted neighborhoods.  Out of 630 dwellings on 184 acres the density of less than 11 persons per acre is one of the lowest in Southern California, and truly California Gold.
