Set against the majestic backdrop of our San Rafael Mountain Range and within walking distance to the goodies that downtown Santa Ynez offers, this darling well-appointed country cottage offers sweetness inside and a surprise out back. Inside, the home gives breezy, upscale, 'Magnolia-country cottage' vibes with its three light and airy bedrooms, two updated bathrooms, and reimagined and remodeled open cooks' kitchen with its deep tone granite slab countertops, white cabinets, breakfast bar plus light-filled southern exposed dining room with room for oversized dining table. Step down into the cozy living room at the front of the home anchored by a brick hearth fireplace and sit a spell. Wood grain tile throughout the home ties open spaces together. The bedrooms are light, airy and inviting and the primary bedroom opens onto the backyard through the second set of French Doors in the home. The backyard is divine! Over 1/3 acre of flat, useable, shaded & sunny, woodsy wonderland including two open entertaining patios, raised garden beds, expansive lawn, and the BACKYARD BONUS: a STUDIO! A recent addition of a second structure behind the garage the owners currently use as a home office and offers potential for flex space, office or workshop. This cheerful country cottage offers proximity to award-winning Santa Ynez Valley Charter, Santa Ynez Elementary and High Schools & access to the boutique shops, wine tasting & dining and outdoor activities in the gorgeous Santa Ynez Valley.
