About This Home

As of October 2024

An unparalleled opportunity awaits behind the gates of Montecito's exclusive Birnam Wood Golf Club. Positioned on one of the most desired parcels within the club, this private, south-facing, 4,489± square foot residence spans nearly 3/4 of an acre. Its flat, usable landscape distinguishes it, an exceptional feature among the limited parcels without direct fairway frontage or golf ball activity. This estate property features a pool, inviting patios, lawns, orchards, a three-car garage, a gated driveway, and incredible mountain views. 2125 Birnam Wood Drive is a true legacy property to be enjoyed for generations.
