About this home
Preserved with uncommon integrity...
Built in 1929 by famed Santa Barbara architect Alex D'Alfonso, 878 PASEO FERRELO is a rare example of the craftsmanship that helped shape the city's architectural heritage. Set behind a walled garden on one of the Lower Riviera's most desirable streets, the home honors its original character while embracing the comforts of modern living - just moments from downtown, the Santa Barbara Bowl, and area beaches.
Arrival is an experience in itself. Enchanting wooden gates open to a garden that feels like a secret - a stone fountain, a stately king palm, and mature plantings that hint at the whimsy and care woven throughout the property. Step inside and the feeling deepens. Natural light, sweeping ocean and island views, and D'Alfonso's signature windows and doors blur the line between inside and out. The home settles around you with the quiet confidence of a place that has been genuinely loved.
The custom kitchen pairs timeless design with everyday function - Bosch range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, thoughtful detail at every turn. Two bedrooms and two beautifully appointed baths offer comfort and privacy: the primary with soaking tub and separate shower; the secondary finished in marble, penny tile, and inviting shiplap. Dual closets, a dedicated laundry room, generous storage, and central HVAC complete the picture.
An additional - heated and cooled - detached room with Walker Zanger tile flooring adds exceptional flexibility - an ideal home office, art studio, or gym.
Nearly a century on, 878 Paseo Ferrelo endures as we can only imagine its architect intended: crafted with care, tended with pride, and full of the kind of charm that cannot be manufactured. Complete maintenance records available upon request.
