81+ Acres | Ocean Views | Off-Grid Sanctuary Overlooking the Gaviota Coast
A rare offering along the storied Refugio Canyon corridor, this remarkable 81+ acre property commands sweeping views over the breathtaking Gaviota Coast, one of California's last truly unspoiled stretches of coastline. Expansive ocean views and extraordinary privacy create an opportunity that has become increasingly rare along the California coast. Here, the pace slows, the stars shine brighter, and the landscape becomes part of everyday life.
The property includes two distinct residences, a renovated ocean-view cabin and a separate rustic mountain home, along with multiple usable areas well-suited for orchards, vineyards, gardens, livestock, or additional improvements. A unique south-facing microclimate, productive land, and extensive infrastructure make the property equally suited as a private retreat, working farmstead, or legacy family holding.
Designed for independent living, the property is powered by a solar energy system and served by a private well with more than 35,000 gallons of water storage, providing the rare opportunity to enjoy modern comforts while living fully off the grid. Whether your vision is growing food, raising animals, creating a regenerative homestead, or simply embracing a more intentional lifestyle, this property offers the space and resources to make it possible. Just minutes from Refugio State Beach, the property offers exceptional access to the Gaviota Coast's beaches, hiking trails, surfing, fishing, horseback riding, and countless opportunities to experience one of California's most treasured natural landscapes. Yet despite its remarkable seclusion, both Santa Barbara and the renowned wineries, restaurants, and amenities of the Santa Ynez Valley are approximately 40 minutes away.
