Description

View the sunrise and the sunset, experience all the best that Montecito has to offer from this private, gated Mediterranean-style ocean view paradise. This approx. 4,151-sq.ft. estate was built in 2012 with exquisite attention to detail on just shy of an acre, in the Montecito foothills. The 180-degree ocean and island vistas are seen from every bedroom and living space of this 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath luxury home. Resort-like features include a panoramic view swimming pool with automatic cover and a generous tiled spa from which you may relax and watch the sunset or gaze at the stars and twinkling lights of the ocean and city. The versatile indoor/outdoor living area includes a covered dining room and pizza oven with a pass-through window to the kitchen, natural stone counter tops, built-in speakers, and multiple French doors all perfect for entertaining. Once inside, you'll never want to leave. The ocean vistas naturally lighten up all aspects of the home including the island view kitchen with provincial CornuFe oven, living room with exposed beams and raised fireplace, and one ocean view en-suite bedroom for guests downstairs. Upstairs features an office with island views plus skylight, ocean-view family room with direct access to the pool, ocean view master en-suite with fireplace and deck, spa tub with view in master bathroom, three more ocean view bedrooms, two more baths and spacious view balconies. The house is plumbed for a future grey water system, ideal for conservation of water. There's also an attached 2-car garage, laundry room and powder room on the ground floor. A wonderful home within Cold Spring School District and near Montecito hiking trails and a bikers haven.
