3 Beds ⋅ 2 Baths ⋅ Marine Terrace BLDG.
Move in today. Dream bigger tomorrow. Just eight homes from Shoreline Park in Santa Barbara's coveted Marine Terrace enclave, 143 San Rafael Avenue offers the rare combination of a turnkey coastal home to enjoy now and an exciting vision for the future. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence offers approximately 1,606 square feet of inviting living space on a spacious 8,276-square-foot parcel. Refinished hardwood floors, abundant natural light, recessed lighting, and dual-pane windows complement an updated kitchen that flows into the dining and living spaces. A comfortable family room with fireplace opens directly to the backyard, while multiple decks and a sunny, private yard invite relaxed indoor-outdoor living. Tesla solar and an attached two-car garage with direct interior access add everyday convenience. Adding exceptional value to this offering are architectural plans designed by renowned Santa Barbara architect Tom Ochsner. Envisioning an approximately 3,400-square-foot residence, including a junior accessory dwelling unit (JADU), the thoughtfully conceived design received approval from the City of Santa Barbara Single Family Design Board on August 24, 2026. With much of the design and approval process already complete, the next owner can enjoy the home as-is while continuing the remaining permitting process when the time is right. Set in one of Santa Barbara's most desirable coastal neighborhoods, the location puts Shoreline Park and nearby beaches practically at your doorstep, with bike paths, the harbor, Mesa shops and restaurants, downtown, and the Funk Zone all just minutes away. Whether embraced as the beautifully livable home it is today, or as the foundation for Ochsner's architectural vision, 143 San Rafael Avenue presents a rare opportunity to enjoy the quintessential Santa Barbara coastal lifestyle now, with even more possibility ahead.
