Newsletter: March 19

March 19, 2023|by Erik Torkells

FIRST LOOK
Montecito’s new shopping center is coming into focus: The Post will have twice as many restaurants as previously indicated, and the fountain isn’t going anywhere.

·················

·················

JUST LISTED
Noteworthy new listings: 1990s Supertuscan given a polished makeover; freshly renovated 1924 Spanish Colonial; Riviera single-level in need of updating; a new house on five-plus acres in Goleta; turnkey west of N. Hope Avenue for $3.3 million; and more.

·················

·················

SHOP TO IT
The new Wunderkind boutique is a quarter of the size of the Scottsdale flagship, but it’s packed with women’s apparel, accessories (including some rather fabulous shoes), jewelry, and a bit of home decor. Take a look around….

·················

ON THE HORIZON
Two more downtown hotels are in the works—and they’re likely to revive the debate over whether Santa Barbara officials should be doing more to prioritize residential development over hospitality.

·················
