Even in a market known for record-setting prices, Santa Barbara and Montecito see plenty of activity at every price point. Here's a look at the three most accessible closings from the past week.

Topping the list for value, a 2-bedroom, 2-bath condo at 2012 Castillo Street in Santa Barbara closed for $938,000, offering an easy entry point into one of the city's established neighborhoods.

Just above that, 464 Ribera Drive in Santa Barbara sold for $1,450,000. This 4-bedroom, 2-bath home gives buyers room to grow without straying from the city's coveted foothill area.

Rounding out the week, 176 Lassen Drive in Santa Barbara closed at $1,525,000. With 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, it's a solid family-sized option in a neighborhood that continues to draw steady demand.

All three of this week's most affordable sales landed in Santa Barbara, with Montecito closings trending well above these figures — a reminder that pockets of relative affordability still exist even in this region's competitive market.
