1040 May Court, Santa Barbara, CA 93111

''Exit Patterson and head for the hills,'' as the saying used to go— and now you can do just that at this 1971 gem designed by architect Donald E. Pederson. Nestled just half a mile from Cathedral Oaks in a Cul-De-Sac, 1040 May Court captures the classic style North Patterson is known for. Set on a generous 8,712 square foot lot, with views of the Santa Ynez mountains, the property is dotted with citrus and avocado trees, raised garden beds, and mature landscaping. The expansive patio is perfect for entertaining, and the sunroom provides an enclosed bright and airy area for doting over the greenery. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the entry and living room with natural light. Soaring vaulted ceilings and a beautifully arched fireplace make an architectural statement. The open-concept kitchen features abundant natural light thanks to a massive skylight above the large center island. Granite countertops and built-in cabinetry line three walls, offering plenty of storage and workspace. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the family room and sun room. Originally a four-bedroom home, the layout was smartly reimagined to feature three bedrooms and two baths, with the former fourth bedroom transformed into an elegant dining room just off the living room.
