About this home
Welcome to 3966 Laguna Blanca Drive, a rare opportunity to own a classic Hope Ranch estate that blends timeless Santa Barbara charm with exceptional potential. Privately set on just over an acre of lush, mature landscaping, this Spanish-style residence offers nearly 4,000 square feet of light-filled living space with serene garden and hillside views.
Built in 1970, the home combines authentic craftsmanship with the relaxed sophistication that defines Hope Ranch living. Vaulted wood-beamed ceilings, arched openings, and natural light create an inviting sense of warmth and space. The living room features a striking fireplace and opens to the outdoor terrace, while the formal dining room overlooks the pool and gardens. The kitchen and breakfast nook serve as the home’s comfortable hub and offer an ideal opportunity for modernization or full redesign.
The residence includes five bedrooms and four and a half baths, thoughtfully designed for privacy and easy flow. The primary suite enjoys vaulted ceilings, a generous en-suite bath, and views of the surrounding landscape. Several guest bedrooms open directly to the outdoors, creating flexibility for multi-generational living, guest quarters, or work-from-home setups. Throughout the interior, original details and quality construction offer a strong foundation for personalization and updates.
Outside, the property feels like a private retreat. A sparkling pool and spa are surrounded by patios, shaded sitting areas, and established gardens. The gently sloping lot allows room for potential expansion, such as a guesthouse, ADU, or enhanced outdoor living spaces. A three-car attached garage and broad motor court add convenience and ample parking.
In good condition and ready for a new vision, this home provides the perfect canvas—whether refreshed in its current style or transformed into a contemporary showpiece.
Hope Ranch offers a rare combination of privacy, prestige, and natural beauty. Residents enjoy 22 miles of equestrian and walking trails, a private beach with lifeguards and kayak storage, tennis courts, and 24-hour neighborhood security—all just minutes from La Cumbre Country Club, downtown Santa Barbara, and the coast.
3966 Laguna Blanca Drive is more than a home—it’s an opportunity to create a lasting estate in one of California’s most exclusive coastal communities, where the timeless beauty of Spanish architecture meets the enduring elegance of Hope Ranch living.
