In Santa Barbara, living in a luxury villa of Mediterranean style is to enjoy life at its finest. A premier property in prestigious La Romana Estates is now available with awe-inspiring views from the ocean, to the city, and to the surrounding mountains. And, to the credit of the architects at the firm of Murray Duncan, and the craftsmen at A.K. Huddleston Construction, the delights of this paradise location are enhanced by the home's spacious design and extensive use of superior materials and natural textures.
The home itself is substantial. Deep walls meet the thick, exposed wood beams of the cathedral ceilings. Solid doors, hardwood floors and the repeated theme of archways give the structure a quiet strength and a sense of peaceful security so important in a home. In lovely contrast, high ceilings, an open floor plan, and large windows and glass doors welcome in natural light and views of the beautiful outdoors. Experience strength and grace working in harmony.
The home was designed with comfort, convenience and privacy as priorities. Each of the six bedrooms is a living space of its own, and the master suite, bath and huge walk-in closet serve as the pinnacle of comfort. Central to the home is a spacious gourmet kitchen perfect for entertaining. The kitchen, along with the adjoining great room and dining room look out over a wonderful covered patio, gardens and a saltwater pool and spa.
This magnificent villa sits on the highest elevation of the La Romana community and the views from the second floor are spectacular. Because of this, a large balcony and elevated observation deck on the second floor are enviable highlights of the home.
In total, there are six bedrooms and five bathrooms, which includes the benefits of a detached guest casita. A private motor court accesses a three-car garage via a porte cochére. Located minutes from Santa Barbara, this stunning residence rests on .7 landscaped acres, and is near vast open spaces and a protected 11-mile trail system.
