Upper East

Upper East is a sought-after neighborhood in Santa Barbara, home to manicured streets and sprawling estates with views of the Santa Ynez Mountains. Upper East is bordered by downtown Santa Barbara, Lower Rivera, and Oak Park, and the mostly residential community is home to the historic Santa Barbara Mission and Alameda Park. Upper East’s ideal location means that locals are right next door to the lively dining and entertainment options in downtown, but the neighborhood is still known for its quiet streets nestled among hills and greenery.
