This is our primary home, not a full time rental, so be prepared to see family photos in the hallway and some framed children's artwork. We are teachers who love to travel with our family during the summer. That said, our house is in a residential neighborhood with sidewalks and parks. It's conveniently located near Haskell's Beach (2 miles away), Devereux Beach, Goleta Beach, a large shopping center with Costco, Albertson's, theaters, restaurants, breweries and UCSB. Our house is walking distance to 3 parks and a disc golf course. It's a short drive from downtown Santa Barbara (15-20 minutes), the airport (5 miles) and the Amtrak station (4 miles).
Our home has a 1600 ft floor plan home plus a garage, located on a cul de sac. We have 2 children, so it is kid friendly. 2 bedrooms have queen size beds, one has 2 twin beds and the fourth has a double bed. We have a living room and family room (which has a desk, piano and fireplace (solely for ambiance, not warmth)), dining area and kitchen. Our backyard consists of a large grass area, redwood pergola and large patio with table and plenty of seating. We also lots of toys to play with in the back yard - a ping pong table, corn hole, disc golf basket, trampoline and small climbing wall to use at your own risk.
In the connected garage you'll find our washer/dryer which is available for stays 5 nights and longer. There is also a couch and tv perfect for the kids to escape :) We typically leave boogie boards and foam surfboards available for use in the garage (please check with us prior to your stay if interested in these items). We have over 15 fruit trees that, if with ripe fruit, you may pick. The kitchen will be stocked with all the necessary pots/pans, and cutlery to make any meal. We also recently remodeled our kitchen with wooden counter tops that take some extra care. Thank you in advance!
