Santa Ynez Valley, California's Central Coast
Santa Barbara County

Where elegance meets country living, this 34+/- acre ranch, under an hour from the coastal City of Santa Barbara, is easily accessed by vehicle or area airports. Wrapped by panoramic Valley views, the security gated tree-lined driveway passes lawns and white fences. Oak trees, some centuries old, protect gardens and sweeping lawns.

There are 3 residences, a pool, garages, 8-stall show barn, multiple additional barns and help's apartments, a lit arena, pastures and horse facilities plus the added potential for wine grapes in the renowned Santa Ynez Valley AVA.

The guest house, designed by Hendrix & Allardyce Interior Design of Beverly Hills, a leading national design firm featured many times in Architectural Digest, set the high standard of excellence reflected in the over 8000 square foot main residence.

A courtyard entry is centered by an elegant fountain with iron entry double-doors opening to the 20' tall foyer. Glass panels in these crafted doors open to bring the Mediterranean climate indoors. Floors are French pattern Golden Sienna Stone and counter tops are Giallo Macaubas Granite. The home is flooded with light by eighty windows and doors. Exquisite cabinetry has multilayered finishes. Lighting features Paul Ferrante handmade chandeliers, lanterns and sconces and a LED lighting system.

This 4 bedroom, 6 bath (4 full, 2 half) home, designed for today's living, has a media room/library next to a great room, the open kitchen and dining area. The living room, centered by a massive fireplace, has 10' ceilings and sets of 8' tall French doors to the courtyard. A travertine stone stairway with crafted iron railing accesses the master suite. A vaulted 8'-wide galleria lined with picture windows accesses an office with bath, a large laundry and two bedrooms with en suite bathrooms.

Convenient, years in the creation and impossible to duplicate, this is a beautiful country retreat.
