Tucked into a tranquil corner setting, this light-filled cottage blends modern comfort with easy, low-maintenance living. Two bedrooms and two full baths are complemented by thoughtful renovations throughout: recessed lighting, high-quality doors, newer windows, and luxury vinyl plank flooring. The tastefully updated kitchen and bathrooms feature new cabinetry and quartz countertopsclean, timeless finishes that elevate daily living. Outdoor spaces invite you to linger: a private wraparound front patio for morning coffee, and a back patio for al fresco dining with views across lush, mature landscaping and Encina Royale's community 9-hole golf course. Encina Royale is Goleta's hidden gem with 42 acres of beautifully maintained grounds with resort-style amenities, including a heated pool, clubhouse with card rooms and town hall, gym, shower rooms, library, and woodshop. The HOA simplifies everything with on-site management and coverage for landscaping, building maintenance, exterior insurance, Cox cable and internet, water, and trash. So you can spend more time enjoying the setting and less time on chores. Convenient to shopping, restaurants, the Goleta Library, and a movie theater, this beautifully refreshed retreat offers a relaxed, fulfilling lifestyle in a wonderful 55+ community.
