What Passes for a Slow Week in Santa Barbara Real Estate These Days

This is what passes for a slow week in Santa Barbara real estate these days. There will possibly be more when the county assessor updates its website, which it hasn’t done for a month.

1505 MONTE VISTA ROAD
Splendid 1933 Chester Carjola with 9,220 square feet that need to be freshened up. Please keep that blue-and-yellow bathroom tile!
Listed: $8.999 million in September 2020.
Closed: $8.85 million.

·············

40 HAMMOND DRIVE
Four-bedroom in the Sea Meadow community.
Listed: $5.195 million in March 2020.
Closed: $4.8 million.

·············

2166 MISSION RIDGE ROAD
1949 Chester Carjola with a recent-ish second-floor addition that totally works. There’s potential for this to be a showpiece, but it’s already the among the most expensive houses in that area….
Listed: $5.995 million in October 2018, then cut three times till it was at $4.95 million.
Closed: $4.75 million.

·············

1150 ORIOLE ROAD
Remarkable price for an unremarkable house: is the Coast Village area a bubble within a bubble?
Listed: $3.9 million in September 2020.
Closed: $3.826 million.

·············

1540 BOLERO DRIVE
Off-market sale. While the interiors could be a challenge, the property compares favorably to 1150 Oriole (above)—the house is bit larger and on an acre, vs. 1150 Oriole’s .45 acre.
Listed: $3.795 million.
Closed: $3.702 million.

·············
