Property Description
A custom mahogany entry door with leaded glass, transom, and side lights welcomes you into a tiled foyer adorned with intricate inlaid designs. Arched passages lead to a bright living room with high ceilings, its French doors framing mesmerizing ocean and island views. The adjacent family room invites gatherings around a two-sided fireplace, shared with the formal dining room, which boasts breathtaking harbor views and French doors opening onto a wraparound patio and lawn. Natural maple cabinetry, granite tile counters, and new appliances grace the light-filled kitchen, where you can take in ocean, city, and mountain vistas from the sink window. Completing the main level is a flexible fourth bedroom with exterior access, a stylishly tiled hall bath, and a spacious laundry room with ample storage and a tub sink.
Second Floor Oasis
Ascend the beautifully hand-turned balustrades and custom chandelier-lit staircase to the private bedroom level. The primary suite is an expansive haven oriented to capture ocean, island, city, and harbor views, even from the bed. French doors open to a large view deck with custom tile insets, perfect for peaceful mornings or starlit evenings. A romantic fireplace and a deep walk-in closet complete this tranquil retreat, while the adjoining primary bath features a custom-tiled tub/shower, a natural maple vanity, and dual sinks. Two additional upstairs bedrooms, one with impressive ocean and island views share a well-appointed hall bath.
Outdoor Living & Entertaining
Immerse yourself in Montecito's idyllic climate on the home's numerous patios, terraces, and lawn areas, all partially enclosed by elegant wrought-iron fencing. The west side reveals unforgettable sunsets and sparkling city lights, complete with a built-in BBQ station, a private Jacuzzi spa, and more ocean and harbor views. Off the dining room, a custom-tiled patio offers the ideal setting for alfresco dining against a postcard-perfect Pacific backdrop. On the east side, a courtyard entrance from the parking area flows into manicured lawns and a finished garage. The north yard includes a terraced open area plus a dog run. The two-piece Spanish tile roof, La Habra stucco exterior, and factory-painted Anderson dual-pane windows embody the home's quintessential blend of classic and contemporary.
