It was a pretty quiet weekend so I went to Cambria on Sunday with my family. Do you have any idea how many moon stones there are on Moon Stone Beach? A lot. Ask my granddaughter - I'm pretty sure she found them all. :) It was pretty slow going! We stopped for lunch on the way at Bell Street Farms in Los Alamos. If you haven't eaten lunch there you should. I also learned that the Union Hotel, which is also a B&B, has changed from a traditional dinner spot to Tapas and live music on the weekends. So cool! Speaking of Tapas … thank you to my neighbor and reader (you know who you are!) who organized a progressive Tapas dinner in our mutual neighborhood. It was a complete and total blast and I highly recommend it to anyone who likes their neighbors. We ate, we drank and were definitely merry by the time we got to the last house. Fun times! Can't wait until the next time.
New Listing
3741 Mattei Rd., Santa Ynez (main house, other dwellings on 5 acres) $3,695,000Here's an adult and kid playground that will rival pretty much all of them. Horse facilities, tennis court, pool, spa. Yoga turet! Wow. That's certainly a one of a kind cool amenity! House is big at over 4000 square feet, fun and very well built. It manages to be super comfortable with a definitive good time spark but at the same instant, carries its own brand of casual elegance. You can see from the pics this is not an ostentatious house but it is dramatic in its own way. Upscale funky. Super classy farmhouse. So very Santa Ynez Valley. You may remember this from December of last year when it expired without selling at $3,875,000. Shared well. Normal sale.
Price Reduction
3529 Tivola, Santa Ynez (3/2 on .24 of an acre) Was 525K with a new price of 499K. This one had some offers early on that didn't result in a sale. We finally see the price dipping below 5, which is good news. Pics don't really tell the story of this property. Come and see it in person. Very clean, traditional floor plan. Unusually private for this area due to the garage being out front and side front door entry. Surprisingly pretty well planned back yard with a slightly terraced design. Now that its under 500K, I like it a lot more. Normal sale.
In Escrow
1945 Old Mill, Solvang (4/4 on .46 of an acre) $1,099,000 On the market 479 days this time around and 181 with the prior expired listing in 2011. Normal sale.
Sold
1540 Viking Way, Solvang (4/3 on 1 acre) Listed at $779,900 with a new price of 765K. One of my favorite properties. Just loved it. Mint condition with a floor plan that worked for so many lifestyles. End of the lane privacy. When you see as many houses as I do, you learn to appreciate the ones that have been lovingly maintained over the years. This one definitely has. Normal sale.
