Ocean views, newly remodeled interiors, and an A+ location make this the ultimate Montecito destination! Whether you are looking for generous scale, an open floor plan, abundant natural light, or an epic primary suite, you’ll find everything on your wishlist and more at this beautiful Park Lane estate.
Through the first set of gates, lush botanicals and a soothing fountain offer a moment of zen in the entry courtyard. As an al fresco foyer, this outdoor room gives the residence a beautiful sense of arrival.
Once inside, generous proportions and lofty ceilings set the tone for the home’s ideal architecture. Beachy beamed ceilings are balanced by wide plank oak floors and soft white walls.
Enjoy ocean and harbor views from the living room. With light on three sides, this beautiful space is awash in evolving light and shadows. Set up as an analog antidote to our busy digital world, this room is perfect for celebrating great conversations, listening to good music, and taking in the iconic views.
The kitchen family room is the true heart of the home and celebrates the marriage of form and function. Chic design details include a Moroccan tile backsplash and floating shelves, while professional appliances and an abundance of storage offer essential conveniences.
The adjacent family room is perfect for watching the big game with friends or curling up with a good book by the fireplace. Sliding doors lead to the pool and yard beyond, making it easy to keep an eye on outdoor activities from both the kitchen and family room.
The thoughtful floor plan lays out a beautiful dining room that is both its own space yet a seamless part of an open-concept floor plan. Sliding doors lead to the patio and ocean views, making every meal an indoor/outdoor experience.
Sweet dreams, indeed! The epic primary suite is a spacious oasis within the home. The bedroom features beamed ceilings, a gas fireplace, and a private terrace with a plunge pool. Three walk in closets offer abundant storage options and the home’s second laundry facility. The spa-like bath is home to a soaking tub, walk-in shower, private water closet, and additional storage.
In addition, the primary suite includes a spacious bonus space. Currently used as a home office, this flex space could easily transition into a gym, nursery, art studio, or a snore room.
The second level is home to two gracious ensuite bedrooms. The first features a large sitting room and the second overlooks the cactus garden.
An ocean view bonus room is perfect for pilates or as a second home office.
Whether you need space for music, media, creative endeavors, or guests, the ADU offers flexible space to fit your every need. Privately located outside the entry courtyard, this autonomous space is an integral part of the estate.
The pool and yard are perfect for year-round play. Whether you prefer swimming laps, lounging poolside, manning the grill, or playing soccer in the grass, there is ample space to enjoy the great outdoors.
The garden’s sunny southern orientation ensures abundant harvests. Fruits, veggies, citrus, and herbs thrive and create a private, year-round farmer’s market. A bee box on the northern corner of the property not only helps the plants thrive, but also creates small-batch honey.
Few properties enjoy the fabled view of the Santa Barbara harbor. From this unique vantage point, the ocean, harbor, and hillside blend seamlessly. Morning light filters through the oaks and gives way to a sunny midday exposure. At twilight, watch as the sun lights up the Santa Ynez foothills before going down over the hills of Santa Barbara. Evenings are the perfect time to enjoy the twinkling lights of the harbor, city, and hillside.
