When you hear a home is outfitted with a chef’s kitchen, you figure you’ll see a prep space worth drooling over. But in the case of this home now on the market, the chef’s kitchen has a more literal meaning.
A modest ranch house in Santa Barbara, CA, belonging to celebrity chef Cat Cora is up for sale. Listed for $1,259,000, the home features a chef’s kitchen with true culinary mojo. The cooking vibes Cora is leaving behind could be the cherry on top of a sweet sale.
The three-bedroom, two-bath, 1,565-square-foot house was built in 1958, but has since been updated. Walls have been eliminated, and the kitchen was expanded. The cooking area is now the center of an open floor plan. And you shouldn’t be shocked to find the kitchen has professional-grade appliances.

Beyond the kitchen, the small home is in “need of some TLC,” according to the listing. Because this property sits on prime Santa Barbara real estate. You can “enjoy the quaint original size or expand out or up to maximize the wonderful ocean and island view potential,” notes listing agent Toni Mochi of George Logan Properties.

Not only does the home have an ocean view, it’s also a short walk to Santa Barbara’s Thousand Steps beach, parks, shops, restaurants, and highly rated Washington Elementary School, which was no doubt a big deal for Cora and her four young sons.
Cora split from her wife, Jennifer Cora, late last year and has been busy expanding her culinary empire. The first female Iron Chef is the former host of Bravo’s “Around the World in 80 Plates,” and the current host of the upcoming Fox reality show, “My Kitchen Rules,” based on an Australian show of the same name.
She’s the founder of Chefs for Humanity, a grass-roots organization that mobilizes chefs to lend their skills to communities in need. In addition, she oversees two food lines, a cookware line, a shoe line, and restaurants.
