When the old St. Francis Hospital went out of business, it left behind a defunct hospital sitting on six acres of prime residential real estate in the foothills of Santa Barbara.
The Cottage Hospital Foundation immediately saw a great opportunity to provide affordable housing for its employees within the Cottage Medical System.
They purchased the property and obtained approval to demolish the old hospital in order to build a new 115-unit condominium project, of which 81 units would be reserved for hospital employees at subsidized prices and 34 unites would be marketed to the general public at market rate prices.
The project consists of 45 separate one, two, and three-story building design types, including duplex and triplex units with one, two, and three-bedroom units. Most of the units have ocean views. The Bella Riviera project also includes underground parking structures and drainage basins designed to reduce storm runoff. The design of the complex is meant to blend in with the varied styles of the historic “Bungalow” neighborhood district surrounding the project.
