About This Home

21 E Quinto Street

''Quinto'' Essential Spanish-Colonial Revival ~ An enchanted 1928 single-level home embodies the distinctive characteristics of the Santa Barbara Mission, a local landmark. In the heart of Santa Barbara on the Upper Eastside, a classic neighborhood conveniently located close to downtown, the Mission, Oak Park, Cottage Hospital and beautiful beaches. The neighborhood is quaint and charming. The residence features five bedrooms and four baths, with an approximate total of 3,791 square feet on four-tenths of an acre. The property has a guest structure that includes two bedrooms and a bath with a kitchen area which encompasses approximately 835 square feet. The home is an architectural marvel with a bright red tile roof, white stucco walls, and a beautiful arcade with terracotta tiles surrounded by a Mediterranean stonewall across the front of the home. The property has an elevated perspective because it's uplifted a few feet above the street level. The home features an arched entryway with a carved wood door, colorful mosaic tiles and intricate wrought iron work. There are decorative Spanish style accents throughout the home which creates a warm and lovely atmosphere. The open floor plan home is filled with beautiful vintage light fixtures and alcove lighting, creating a romantic ambiance. The handsomely appointed dark wood flooring with peripheral inlay throughout the home, giving it a luxurious feel. The country kitchen features retro black-and-white checkered tile flooring paired with hand-painted tile countertops; around the corner is a sunroom perfect for a breakfast nook and a formal dining area. The showcase living room highlights full-length bay windows, wood beam ceilings, and a fireplace mantle with Spanish tiles. There are four bedrooms in the main house and the fifth bedroom includes private access. Several bathrooms are light, bright, and cheery; the primary bathroom has an exquisite Renaissance-inspired hand-painted mural. The backyard is designed for entertaining and features a fan-shaped swimming pool. The house is flanked by large front and back yards with manicured rose, lavender, and camellia gardens. The property is one of the most picturesque homes in the Upper Eastside maximizing both indoor and outdoor living. Per a letter from an architectural historian in July 2022, the property has historical significance and is eligible as a Structure of Merit by the Historic Landmarks Commission of Santa Barbara.
