Affluent people all over the world are searching far and wide for the perfect place to call home. What they are finding is Santa Barbara, California fits that requirement. Santa Barbara offers beautiful weather all year long. It is a small oceanfront resort market with a low growth philosophy, meaning the political will is to keep it a small town with clean air and no traffic. The lifestyle is relaxed if you want it to be, but offers innumerable opportunities to stay busy if that is what you prefer. Arts, culture and active lifestyle opportunities abound. This all combines to provide the fortunate residents of Santa Barbara a fantastic quality of life.
Who Lives In Santa Babara?
In addition to countless Captians of fortune, some notable celebrities who call Santa Barbara home include Oprah Winfrey who purchased her Montecito estate for $40 million. Other celebrities who have homes in Santa Barbara are Julia Louie Dryfus, Dennis Miller, Rob Lowe, Kathy Ireland, Jonathan Winters, Carol Burnett, Michael Douglas & Catherine Zeta-Jones, Troy Aikman, Steve Martin, Jeff Bridges & Fred Couples to name just a few.
Strong Demand & Low Supply of Estates for Sale
The enticing Santa Barbara lifestyle has drawn affluent homebuyers in droves. What these homebuyers find when they arrive is that there is a very limited amount of Estate homes to select from. The limited inventory is the result of the low growth philosophy that has existed in Santa Barbara for decades. This is further exacerbated by a limited amount of available land from which to build on. If a parcel of land could be found, the process of getting an approval to build is long, difficult, expensive and exhaustive.
