If you’re looking for a year-round or vacation home in a compact, laid-back California beach town, you might want to check out Summerland CA homes for sale. This charming hamlet is just 10 minutes from Santa Barbara by car, and just over the hill from Montecito.
The close-knit community of around 1,500 full- and part-time residents offers a relaxed, tranquil ambiance. Even if you’re in town only on weekends and vacations, a trip to the intimate post office might result in an hour-long conversation with neighbors. That’s how friendly it is here.
Home to a diverse and often colorful array of artists, writers, entrepreneurs and professionals, Summerland possesses a sort of Bohemian soul. Stroll, cycle or cruise down Lillie Avenue, the town’s main business street, and you’ll be tempted to stop in at one of the casual and family-friendly dining establishments and a delightful array of antique shops, galleries and even a winery tasting room. A wonderful beachside park features expansive lawns, play areas and direct access to the beach.
