HOT PROPERTY
Last week’s sales: Modernist villa above Montecito for $8.2 million; the appealing spec reno near Hale Park; 1965 Riviera four-bedroom; mostly renovated 1978 house behind Eucalyptus Hill; upstairs entrance in Mission Canyon; and more. See what sold—and for how much.

FAVORITE THINGS
The best gifts come from the heart—and from local independent shops, such as Field Trip, Emily Joubert, and Field + Fort. So get out there and go shopping!
