With a hidden lush, covered terrace, several trickling fountains, and a community pool to enjoy, Hidden Terrace promises to be the ideal vacation spot to settle in, relax and unwind. Pride of ownership assures the home has been outfitted nicely with all the amenities necessary for a comfortable stay. Topping the list of features, air conditioning will keep things cool on warmer days. Or, step out to enjoy the terrace with two covered loggias, seating, a Weber propane barbecue, and an umbrella-clad teak table that seats four.
With the flip of a switch, an enclosed wall fireplace illuminates the living and dining rooms. Comfortable leather couches invite conversation and offer a cozy configuration to enjoy a movie night or the latest in streaming programs. The glass-top dining table seats four for an elegant meal under a crystal chandelier. The kitchen table anchors a well-stocked and efficient kitchen for the more casual morning cup of coffee or kid's lunch option. Bosch appliances include a stainless steel refrigerator, dishwasher, and 5-burner stove that elevate the culinary experience in the sunny kitchen.
The king-size bed rests beneath a lighted tray ceiling in the primary suite, adding a touch of ambiance to this spacious room. In addition, drawers and hanging space are abundant in the large walk-in closet adding more conveniences, especially for the long-term guest. The second bedroom on this same wing is outfitted with a twin day bed with the added bonus of a printer/scanner for those working or studying at home. There is a full bathroom and laundry across the hall. As the third sleeping option, a bedroom suite off the living room features a queen-size bed and a full bathroom with a shower. Beach chairs and beach towels are provided, so be sure to save plenty of time to get to the beach!
When things really heat up, or it's time to indulge in some luxurious, leisurely lounging, the community pool with shady cabanas and plenty of chaises offers a refreshing departure. The reward at the end of any busy day is to take a well-deserved dip in the in-ground bubbling spa to soothe the soul, or those aching muscles.
If an active agenda fits into the travel plan, there are hiking and biking trails nearby. San Marcos Preserve is a treasure map of easy to moderate trails within just a few minutes of the home and worth the effort to explore. Or go online and find other areas that suit the energy level and interests of the group. For the wine enthusiast, there is always an open invitation to hop on the 101N and take a scenic coastal drive up to the Santa Ynez Valley for some local wine tasting. While there take time to visit Solvang, the mecca of Danish-themed baked goods, tasty treats, and European souvenirs.
Knowing the comfort, style, location and great amenities that await, making the decision to book Hidden Terrace is easy. Once here, let the charm, beauty, and untold gifts of Santa Barbara and the surrounding areas shape the experience to perfection. However, be warned. You may never leave!
