Over the course of 3 meticulous years, 2422 Fletcher Avenue was taken down to its bones and rebuilt with the kind of care and craftsmanship that simply isn't done anymore. The result is a classic Santa Barbara Craftsman that looks and lives like a brand-new home, without sacrificing an ounce of its old-world soul. The main residence offers single-level living at its finest across 3-bedrooms and 2-bathrooms: soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, and a chef's kitchen where every cabinet was custom-designed to evoke a sense of nostalgia, right down to the antique bronze grille mesh details. New windows frame the beautifully landscaped yard, where a thoughtfully designed hardscape sets the stage for effortless al fresco dining and entertaining Above the home, a fully independent 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom apartment with its own private entrance offers remarkable flexibility, whether for extended family, a creative studio, or rental income. Both units have been outfitted with separate meters, separate addresses (A & B), separate AC/heating systems, and in-unit laundry. The infrastructure is as thoughtful as the design. And the opportunity doesn't stop there. Approved plans and permits are already in place to add two Junior ADUs at the rear of the property, a rare head start for investors and owner-occupants alike. No detail was overlooked. No expense was spared. From the new roof to the new landscaping, every corner of this property tells the same story: done right, done once. This is not a flip. This is a legacy. 2422 Fletcher Avenue Unit A & B, Santa Barbara Listing courtesy of Village Properties - 1.
