Opportunities like this rarely come to market so close to Santa Barbara. This versatile AG-II property offers the combination buyers are constantly searching for but seldom find: two residences, a permitted 30' x 40' shop with 240V power, usable acreage, and tremendous flexibility for agricultural, equestrian, business, hobby farm, or multi-generational living. AG-II zoning is intended to support agricultural and rural uses while preserving long-term value and open space, making properties like this increasingly difficult to replace. Whether you're looking for rental income, a family compound, space for equipment and vehicles, a workshop for your business, or room to grow crops, raise animals, or simply enjoy a rural lifestyle. This property checks boxes that most buyers spend years trying to find in a single package. The permitted 30' x 40' shop with 240V power provides functionality that many rural properties lack, while the second residence opens the door to extended family living, caretaker housing, or income-producing possibilities. Combined with its close proximity to Santa Barbara, the property offers the rare balance of privacy, productivity, and convenience. Properties with two homes, a permitted shop, and AG-II zoning are exceptionally limited in today's market. Buyers waiting for "the next one" may be waiting a very long time. If you've been searching for a property that offers flexibility, utility, and long-term potential, now is the time to act before this opportunity belongs to someone else.
