Property Description

Thoughtfully refreshed and beautifully renewed, this Cape Cod-inspired Montecito estate offers an elevated expression of East Coast character and coastal California living on more than 2 ocean and mountain view acres. Recent improvements, including fresh paint, updated finishes, enhanced garden fencing, and a refreshed presentation throughout, add a renewed sense of polish while preserving the home's timeless architectural character. A long-gated drive leads through mature trees and landscaped grounds to the shingled residence, where a columned entry and expansive stone motor court set a gracious tone. Inside, soaring ceilings, polished wood floors, detailed millwork, arched passageways, and abundant natural light create a warm and refined atmosphere. The living room makes a memorable impression with its vaulted ceiling, mezzanine balcony, fireplace, built-in window seating, and outlooks that carry across the gardens toward the ocean. The formal dining room features a fireplace, graceful windows, and French doors opening to the wraparound veranda. Nearby, the kitchen offers an inviting setting with new high-end appliances, generous cabinetry, a center island, skylights, and an easy connection to the home's everyday living spaces. The floor plan includes two-bedroom suites on the main level, a lower-level room for additional living, work, or leisure, and a private upstairs primary suite with a fireplace, sitting area, intimate loggia, dual closets, and treetop views toward the ocean and islands. Beyond the main residence, the estate includes a studio above the two-car garage, a separate guest cottage, and a storybook treehouse. Lush lawns, native boulders, mature trees, flowering gardens, exotic plantings, and rare botanical specimens surround a crescent-shaped pool with in-pool spa and a covered dining pergola with built-in grill. Altogether, the estate offers a rare sense of privacy, character, and ease, with layered gardens, ocean-view moments, and inviting spaces for both refined entertaining and relaxed everyday living.
