Enjoy true California living 2 blocks from the beach at this gorgeous 2BR/2BA Mediterranean-style villa -- half of a two-villa duplex.
Prepare dinner at the outdoor kitchenette with barbeque grill, mini-fridge, and sink, then dine alfresco at the four-person table. As the sun sets, gather around the gas fireplace and take in lovely views of the Santa Ynez Mountains.
ABOUT THE HOME
Terracotta bricks welcome you to your Mediterranean-inspired villa, where an open floor plan lets you gather with ease. Open the turquoise doors to the wrought-iron balcony and feel the ocean breeze in the living area. On cool winter nights, enjoy the warm ambience of the gas fireplace and watch a movie on the 54in flat-screen TV.
Prepare a delicious Mediterranean feast in the dreamy gourmet kitchen featuring granite countertops and state-of-the-art stainless steel appliances including a Dacor oven, Sub-Zero side-by-side fridge, and a gas stove.
Store local vintages in the wine chiller, and then gather around the large kitchen island for a tasting. In the nearby dining room, up to six can convene at the long wooden table beneath a wrought-iron chandelier.
Or head to the upper balcony and fire up the grill for an alfresco feast. Then light the fireplace and watch the stars come out over the mountains.
