About this property

Seashell Cottage - Charming Hideaway at the Beach

Seashell Cottage - Charming Hideaway at the Beach

A romantic, secluded, and charming beach hideaway a half block from Montecito's favorite beaches and just steps to the Rosewood Miramar where you can wine and dine. This lovely cottage was beautifully updated and remodeled in June 2007. The designer furnishings, bright open floor plan, modern appliances, and peaceful rear deck combine to make a wonderful vacation escape. The rear deck overlooks Montecito creek, and is shaded by 200 year old sycamore trees. It is an easy stroll to both Miramar Beach and Hammond's Beach. Beach chairs, towels, umbrellas, beach toys, and a beach wagon are available for your use. Montecito's Coast Village Road is a 2 minute drive away. Downtown Santa Barbara, with its beaches, museums, boating excursions, and other attractions, is about 10 minutes away. Please consider this private and romantic cottage for your next retreat from the pressures of everyday life. You will not be disappointed!

NOTE: This property can be combined with the adjacent cottage "Seaside Cottage" to make a 3 bedroom / 2 bathroom home. Access passages can be opened between both living rooms and patios. Book "Seashore Retreat" to have the entire home!

Wonderful, perfection beyond words. Exceeds all expectations
The stay at Seashell cottage is a joy for the soul. Perfection. The house is lovingly restored by the friendly owners,Dr Susan and Michael. They’ve spared no effort or expense in providing every imaginable amenity for the comfort of their guests.Starting from the state of the art fireplace and modern kitchen, to the comfortable bed. Everywhere you look there’s beauty combined with functionality..The kitchen- well stocked. The laundry place with every cleaning product provided. The beautiful antique stain glass windows have been transported by the owner from his own home to install here. The antique furniture is exhibition worthy and cozy The house is in a quiet lane, a stone’s throw from the fabulous Miramar beach. And there’s a garden tended to regularly And to top it all off, a brook runs behind the private porch. It was truly a privilege to be able to spend several weeks in this exquisite, quiet, private place Thank you Susan and Mike for creating a home of caring and beauty.
