Address: 1605 Mountain Avenue
Status: Not for Sale
Rather than keep strangers out, the low stone wall around the 1920s-era cottage at 1605 Mountain Avenue is the perfect height for neighbors to stop and sit on for a spell, or to pause for a chat while they’re walking their dogs.
It’s not only neighbors who have taken notice of this welcoming wall and the thoughtfully curated front yard inside it. Stephanie Poole and her family have received accolades for their landscaping from near and far. Last month, the project received the grand prize in Santa Barbara County’s 2020 WaterWise [CQ] Garden Contest and was also named America’s Best Front Yard by Better Homes & Gardens magazine.
