Here's what $75M will get you in the 'American Riviera'
Located on the coast of Southern California, Santa Barbara’s Mediterranean-like climate has earned the city the nickname “the American Riviera.”
Considering the climate, which has been named among the best in the U.S., it may not be a surprise that Santa Barbara and neighboring Montecito have some very wealthy residents who have built very pricey homes there.
Here’s a look at a few of those homes that are available on the market right now, courtesy of Compass real estate:
