HOT PROPERTY
Last week’s sales: Miniature French Norman on Ortega Ridge after seven price cuts; East Valley Road Mediterranean with tennis court; 1925 Spanish Colonial in Samarkand; ground-floor beachfront two-bedroom condo in Carpinteria; and a remodeled 1920 three-bedroom downtown. See what sold—and for how much.
