About this home
Located in the heart of Montecito, this timeless estate masterfully blends old-world craftsmanship with refined California luxury. Designed by acclaimed architect Jon Sorrell, in the tradition of George Washington Smith's iconic Spanish Colonial Revival style, the residence was completed in 2009 with extraordinary attention to detail, scale, and authenticity throughout.
Approached by a magnificent olive tree-lined driveway, the estate immediately evokes a sense of serenity and arrival. Beyond the gates, the three-bedroom, four-bath residence unfolds with rich architectural character, featuring barrel-vaulted ceilings, four fireplaces, walnut and tile floors, and custom steel windows and doors. Grand living and dining rooms are framed by soaring ceilings and dramatic beams reclaimed from a historic Tennessee distillery, creating an atmosphere of warmth, permanence, and understated elegance rarely found in newer construction.
Designed for both intimate daily living and effortless entertaining, the chef's kitchen opens seamlessly to a welcoming family room with fireplace and direct access to the terraces, gardens, pool, and spa beyond. Additional amenities include a built-in office nook, utility room with sink and washer/dryer, and dual-zone HVAC systems for year-round comfort and convenience.
Two guest suites on the main level offer private ensuite accommodations, while the upper-level primary suite serves as a tranquil retreat. Featuring two balconies with ocean and island views, four sets of doors opening to the outdoors, and a private staircase descending directly into the gardens, the suite captures the essence of Montecito indoor-outdoor living. A separate primary den enjoys dramatic mountain vistas, creating an idyllic setting for relaxation or quiet retreat. The luxurious primary bath includes a steam shower, separate water closet, and an oversized custom walk-in closet with built-ins.
In addition to the main residence, the property includes a beautifully appointed detached guest casita offering one bedroom and one bathroom. Complete with parquet floors and multiple private patio spaces, the casita is nestled within its own tranquil garden setting , creating an idyllic retreat for guests or extended stays.
The estate grounds, thoughtfully designed by renowned landscape architect Isabelle Greene, are as captivating as the residence itself. Created through an extensive investment in landscaping and hardscaping, the outdoor environment offers a series of enchanting garden experiences and intimate gathering spaces. Multiple seating areas, serene garden retreats, an outdoor fireplace, and elegant outdoor dining spaces are woven seamlessly throughout the property, creating an atmosphere of exceptional beauty and tranquility.
Designed for effortless entertaining, the grounds also feature a resort-inspired pool and spa, as well as a dedicated barbecue area ideal for al fresco living. Mature and curated gardens showcase a remarkable collection of plantings, including native Matilija poppies, apple trees, fig trees, lemon and lime trees, plum trees, and persimmon trees -- all contributing to the estate's sense of abundance, privacy, and timeless California beauty....
