Laguna House | Architectural Gem In The Heart Of Downtown Santa Barbara.

2 Bedroom House in Laguna, Santa Barbara

This unique rental is located in the Historical district, in the heart of downtown, on a private lane that was once called 'The Greenwich Village of Santa Barbara'. Three blocks from State Street and a five minute walk from this residence brings you to coffeehouses , restaurants, theaters and shopping. Continuing for another ten minutes towards the ocean, you will pass through the famous “funkzone”, and arrive at the Santa Barbara Pier and the East Beach of the California Riviera.
Nearly fifty years ago this one of a kind home, an example of Spanish Colonial Mission architecture was designed and built by hand, by one man, as a lasting tribute to Las Trampas mission church. Recently, under the creative design eye of the artist and home owner, the twelve hundred square foot, vaulted ceiling, two level property has been brought into the twenty first century.
The upper level includes the striking kitchen which features tiles designed by local architect and artist Jeff Shelton and is fully equipped with stove, farm sink, refrigerator and dishwasher. A few steps away, the master bedroom, includes a king four poster bed, a talavera tiled bathroom, a gas kiva fireplace, sitting area and private balcony.
The second bedroom is light filled, the queen sized bed features a crewel work headboard from the old Biltmore Hotel, and a window that looks out onto an ivy covered wall.
White washed art covered walls join the two levels. A hand carved reclaimed red wood beam leads into the downstairs living area. The twenty foot ceilings and the kiva fireplace are enhanced with a view through double french doors that lead out to a private dining patio. The intimate garden is surrounded by ten foot adobe walls and a gate to the street.
You can enjoy the eclectic art and quiet before you step out and walk to all that Santa Barbara has to offer. Saturday morning farmers market, the Historic Presidio, the Mission and lower Riviera, music at the Santa Barbara Bowl, movies, the ocean, Santa Barbara courthouse and sunken garden, Santa Barbara Museum of Art, State Street shopping and restaurants.
This is not someone’s home, but a destination dedicated by it’s owners to the notion that others should enjoy the full experience of our special residence and this magnificent city.

Summary: This lovely and colorful home was the perfect base for our stay in Santa Barbara. Clean, wonderfully furnished and perfectly appointed with anything you need, comfortable beds and multiple spaces to hang out and relax. There is parking for two cars and the home is located within two blocks of State street with a wide array of restaurants, shopping and entertainment. But if you feel like cooking in the kitchen has everything you need (including the nice touch of two water filter carafes - much needed in Santa Barbara as the tap water is awful to drink otherwise). I would highly recommend this home for a perfect base for exploring Santa Barbara.

Summary: Recently, my 2 children, their spouses, and I spent 5 days in Santa Barbara. We enjoyed our stay very much. This precious, unique home can accommodate 6 adults comfortably. It is very conveniently located and within walking distance (3, 4 blocks) from downtown. The house was spotless and Sally was very easy to work with. I was astonished to see how well the kitchen was equipped: from flashlight to bottle openers and much more. Coming from Alabama, we were concerned that there was no ac, but it was not needed. What a nice break from our long, hot summers! Thank you, Sally, for making our stay so pleasant.

Summary: The well equipped townhouse has all you need for a comfortable stay. Sally was very nice, accommodating, and helpful. Although it is close to State Street, the house feels like a remote retreat. It's light and airy, with a good breeze when you open the windows. I want to come back in the winter and try out the fireplaces.

Summary: The experience was more than we expected. Sally was there to meet us and to show us everything we needed to know about the home. We did plenty of walking downtown, and never needed to pull the Jeep out of the driveway. The home is decorated beautifully and fits Santa Barbara to a T! We will definitely be back.

Summary: Location: Our family recently stayed at the “Architectural Gem” property for a week to prepare for, attend, and celebrate our son’s wedding. We originally selected this property because it was within easy walking distance to the wedding site: Potek Winery (http://www.potek.com/), in the nearby Santa Barbara “Funkzone.” We happily discovered that this property was also within walking distance to almost everything else: downtown, restaurants, coffee shops, beaches, parks, etc. Except for forays into the countryside to visit flower farms, our car mostly stayed parked (in the covered carport provided.) Comfort: We found this property to be exceptionally comfortable, remarkably quiet for a downtown location (those thick stucco walls?), and very well (and generously) stocked with all the essentials needed for a week-long family gathering. Charm: We especially admired and enjoyed the creative way Sally decorated her property: an eclectic and colorful collection of artwork of all types: photos, paintings, tile work, statuary, etc. Every room had little “surprises” to be discovered and appreciated. The “charm” adjective can also be applied to our host, Sally, who we found to be exceptionally friendly, gracious, and helpful. We can easily and happily recommend the “Architectural Gem” to others… Roger and Karen

Summary: Great for a girls getaway! The home is beautiful, cheerful, clean, well-stocked and bright. Located in a safe and central area (no problem walking at night from State Street). Comfortable beds for a good night sleep. Very close to excellent coffee and an easy walk to State Street. Very convenient car port, right outside the door. Owner is very friendly and responsive. Will stay there again on next trip to Santa Barbara.
