3 Bedroom House in Hidden Valley, Santa Barbara

Nestled in the tranquil Hidden Valley neighborhood between Bel Air and Hope Ranch, this serene escape comfortably accommodates up to six guests—eight if you include the pull-out bed in the living room. Situated at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac on a beautiful tree-lined street, the property borders a lush greenbelt with mature oak trees, offering a quiet, ranch-like atmosphere. Despite its secluded feel, it’s just two miles from Arroyo Burro Beach and four miles from downtown Santa Barbara. For added convenience, the home is equipped with a Tesla electric vehicle charging station. We only rent out our home occasionally when we are traveling, so it’s not available on a regular basis. This makes it a special opportunity to enjoy our space during your stay.
Spacious & Welcoming Interior
The open floor plan features an inviting entry hall and great room, with two bright seating areas in the living room that flow seamlessly into the dining area and kitchen. The dining table seats eight comfortably, with room for up to ten when needed.
The well-equipped kitchen overlooks the front yard and meadow and boasts stone countertops, a gas stove, oven, dishwasher, microwave, coffee maker, garbage disposal, and reverse osmosis filtered water. It comes fully stocked with cookware, an ice cream maker, waffle maker, serving ware, and glassware, ensuring a delightful cooking experience. A washer and dryer are also available for your convenience.
Outdoor Oasis
Step through double glass doors onto a spacious patio featuring a teak table that seats eight, perfect for outdoor dining while overlooking the expansive backyard with mature oak trees. Relax on custom eucalyptus and cedar benches, or fire up the outdoor Blaze gas grill for a BBQ with a view. Nearby, a cozy seating area for eight surrounds a gas fire pit, providing warmth without the smoke.
Poolside Relaxation
The large, 35x20-foot pool is accessible through a sliding glass door from the living room and is surrounded by black bamboo and tropical plants. With a deep end reaching 10 feet and a shallow end of 3 feet, it's ideal for all ages. After a swim, enjoy the hot outdoor shower or unwind in the Jacuzzi, nestled among bamboo and palms. The pool is equipped with an easy-to-use CoverPro pool cover for added safety and peace of mind.
Charming Bedrooms & Bathrooms
The home features three full bathrooms—one with a classic pink tub and shower, and another in the master bedroom with a standalone shower. A third, outdoor bathroom is conveniently located by the pool. While the bathrooms retain their original charm, they are fully functional and well-maintained.
Natural Beauty & Birdwatching
The property is exceptionally quiet, offering daily opportunities to observe a variety of bird species. With over 500 bird species in Santa Barbara, regular visitors include red-tailed hawks, Cooper's hawks, tree sparrows, black phoebes, woodpeckers, doves, and great horned owls. A stroll through the back gate leads to a vast 14-acre meadow with oak trees, a hidden 5-course frisbee golf course, and the year-round Arroyo Burro Creek.
Prime Location for Outdoor Activities
Located just 1.5 miles from Elings Park, you’ll have access to mountain biking and hiking trails, tennis courts, a BMX course, and athletic fields. Hidden Valley is also close to La Cumbre Country Club, Santa Barbara Golf Club, and Hidden Oaks Golf Course. Explore historic downtown, State Street’s restaurants, the harbor, zoo, art museum, and more—all within biking distance or a short drive. Convenient freeway access makes it easy to reach the airport, additional beaches, shopping centers, wineries, UCSB, or City College in minutes.
Proximity to Arroyo Burro Beach
Arroyo Burro Beach, locally known as Hendry's Beach, is just minutes away. This popular off-leash beach is a favorite among locals, offering stunning views, surf spots, and the renowned Boathouse restaurant.

David W. Jul 26, 2019 05:09:38 AM
Summary: Our family stayed at this property for a week and loved it. Proximity to State Street restaurants and activities, Hendry's Beach, hiking paths, etc was excellent. The property was just as described and Jethro was more than helpful during the booking process and kept in touch during our stay to ensure we had no issues. Overall it made our Santa Barbara vacation very enjoyable.

Summary: Our family of six adults stayed at this property for 4 days the week before Christmas. The property was clean, well maintained, convenient and comfortable. The floor plan with open kitchen, dining room and kitchen, opening onto a patio and pool made for good flow and easy living. The master bedroom with its own bath was spacious very nice. The other two rooms were children's rooms and just adequate and had to share a bathroom accessible through a hallway. The kitchen is very spacious and well furnished with a good layout. The house has very nice landscaping and great privacy since it abuts on a large open area of fields and trees without nearby houses on that side which greatly adds to its appeal and charm. The outside jacuzzi is great and worked well. The pool was also appealing with an automatic cover. Unfortunately due to inclimate weather we did not use the pool in spite of heating it. There was a fair amount of rain which filled the cover with several inches of water. The location of the house is pretty good with easy access hiking trails, to the beach, and town as well as shopping and the highway. The house is located at the end of a dead end street so there is no traffic noise which is wonderful and the nights were very quiet. There were a few minor negatives such as lack of hair dryer, no bath towels, no toaster which the owner says will be rectified. The owner Jethro Acosta was personable and responsive and the directions for accessing and closing the house were clear and there were good recommendations for activities and restaurants included with information for the house. Overall we had a very good experience with no major negatives. We would recommend this property for a small group or family .

Summary: The property is really amazing. Its in one of the nicest locations I've seen in the area. The pictures do it justice. The pool shed was overrun with spiders and cobwebs, so no outdoor showering. Also the owner left only a handful of towels, and we didn't pack any, so we were doing a lot of drying of towels between swimming and bathing. The outdoor furniture is pretty old and rickety. One of the chairs actually broke while I was sitting on it. Fortunately I had purchased insurance, and so that paid for a replacement chair - but all of the furniture outside is pretty old. Ultimately I was very disappointed with the owners attitude to me after our visit. During our visit the pool filter stopped working and I had to call the pool service man to fix it since the water was getting quite cloudy. The pool guy fixed it, but after we left the owner told me he would withhold some of m my deposit because he blamed me for the filter stopping working. Apparently a small rock blocked it, and he accused me of "throwing rocks into the pool". His attitude to me was really quite surprising. So in the end, a nice trip was really spoiled by the parsimonious and petty attitude of the owner, which is a shame since the home is really beautiful in an amazing location.

Summary: We booked this house late due a last minute change in plans and we could not have been happier. As the other reviews mentioned, the kitchen, dining, and family area were great for entertaining. We hosted a dinner for 12 one night and everyone had a wonderful time. The description should emphasize the location more, because the house is right next to a HUGE open space with trees and swings. The outside deck was perfect for our dinners. I'd say that the only thing lacking is the curb appeal of the house doesn't live up to the other parts, but that was never a big issue for us.

Summary: Lovely house with great amenities inside and out, very private
Malini N. Jan 9, 2015 10:00:23 AM
Summary: This house was really nice. Particularly the family/living/kitchen area where for our families we spent the bulk of our time. It was spacious and really conducive to family dinners. The deck was great and we loved the outdoor area that was just a beautiful open space with swings for kids to play in. It was a beautiful area! The only con of our stay was the pool was not heated so we could not use it at that time.
