A century ago, architect George Washington Smith designed a private residence at the top of Plaza Rubio for Margaret Andrews, who developed the street and its original seven Spanish homes. This magnificent Spanish classic, the Andrews House, still presides over her vision, preserving today's Mission Historical Park and Rose Garden, the epitome of Santa Barbara's beauty and grace for generations to come. 530 Plaza Rubio is a feast for the senses and the soul. Step through a gated archway into a magical courtyard. In the timeless Andalusian tradition, the home is entered from the courtyard and not from the street. There are bright colors and sweet aromas of all manner of exotic plantings, tile and ironwork, sandstone walls, a delightful swimming pool. Indoors, fine detail everywhere ...rich woods, hand-painted tile, wrought iron, deeply recessed windows, beamed ceilings. A contemporary kitchen with breakfast nook and butler's pantry was designed by the current owners of 25 years, and their passion for cooking and entertaining. There are four generous bedrooms, each with walk-in closet, three full and one half baths. There are wonderful views of the Mission and across the city, and lush green views from every window. Outside, Santa Barbara's golden surroundings for walking and exploring. Inside, a protected and self-contained haven of peace and serenity.
