WELLNESS AT HOME
According to recent design trend reports, “home gym” is now one of the most searched-for features in luxury real estate — and it’s easy to see why. In a world increasingly shaped by convenience and self-care, wellness is no longer reserved for the weekend. It’s woven into daily life — and for many, that begins at home. But in Montecito and Hope Ranch, the home gym isn’t just a treadmill in the garage. These spaces are thoughtfully designed extensions of the home itself — places where natural light pours in, materials inspire calm, and the energy feels purposeful. It’s where your morning begins and your stress melts away. At Riskin Partners, we’re seeing more buyers ask for fitness spaces that are as beautiful as they are functional — and these four standout listings deliver just that.
888 Lilac Drive, Montecito
The home gym here feels more like a private wellness suite than a workout room. Expansive mirrors reflect soft natural light streaming through arched French doors, framing views of the lush grounds beyond. Thoughtfully equipped with cardio and strength-training essentials, the space also features a built-in refreshment station for post-workout hydration. Elegant yet energizing, it’s a place where fitness and luxury live side by side.
4160 La Ladera Road, Hope Ranch
This Hope Ranch estate elevates the concept of at-home wellness. The gym, with its soaring ceilings, exposed beams, and walls of glass, feels open and energizing, framing views of palms and greenery. Outfitted with premium cardio and strength-training equipment, it’s a space that inspires movement at any hour. After a session, step into the spa wing, complete with a cedar-lined sauna — a retreat designed for both performance and restoration.
691 Via Trepadora, Hope Ranch
In Hope Ranch, wellness gets a playful twist at this design-forward estate. The airy studio, framed by mirrored walls and sliding glass doors, is perfect for yoga, dance, or barre — complete with a whimsical patterned ceiling and a statement disco ball that sets the tone for spirited movement. Natural light floods the space, while treetop views bring the outdoors in, making every workout feel fresh and inspiring.
In these homes, wellness isn’t an add-on — it’s built into the architecture of everyday life. And for those who seek beauty, balance, and privacy, there’s nothing more luxurious than that. Contact us to learn more about these properties.
