This extraordinary light filled three-bedroom Post and Beam home is nestled on a verdant, private acre in one of Santa Barbara's most desirable locations. At the base of Gibraltar Road just off Mountain Drive with ocean, island and oak filled garden views through the floor-to-ceiling windows, this very special home offers complete privacy just seven minutes from Coast Village Road in Montecito and five minutes to downtown Santa Barbara.
The spacious and inviting living room is wrapped in wood and glass with a beautiful, muted marble, double-sided fireplace. The fireplace is also seen from the chef's kitchen finished with cabinetry in warm wood tones. The kitchen opens to the elegant dining room and a rear terrace surrounded by lush greenery.
With floor to ceiling windows, the master bedroom and en suite bath opens to a gorgeous new deck for lounging, reading and relaxing. Two bright additional bedrooms also have views and share a full bath.
An open family room and office or reading room is bathed in sunlight, completing the mainly single level home. On the lower level the laundry, mud room and utility bath with shower offers additional storage with access to the garage and gardens.
Ideal for outdoor living, there are multiple casual dining and entertaining areas throughout the property. A detached building can be used as a gym, studio or set up as a bar for bocce on the adjacent court. A hot tub, winding garden paths and numerous citrus trees enhance the sophisticated country lifestyle in this very special property you won't want to leave.
