About This Home

As of February 2021

Art in Architecture. Resting above the American Riviera with majestic 360-degree coastal mountain and ocean views, this gated, 4,840 square foot home is nestled organically within the Santa Barbara foothills. An architectural tour de force, the 5.7-acre property was designed by Cliff Hickman, a disciple of Frank Lloyd Wright. Evoking the famed architect's signature lines, this mid-80s masterpiece is poised for entertaining and once served as the retreat of British pop star, George Michael. Displaying a hexagonal footprint, the home's honeycomb-like framework was designed around a central chimney to comprise a glass-walled Great Room. A wrap-around terrace offers breathtaking views of the Pacific and coastal mountains, overlooking the pool, sauna, tennis court, and guest house. A quiet sanctuary, this secluded oasis is ten minutes to downtown Santa Barbara and minutes to other iconic Santa Barbara locations - the old Mission and Rose Garden, the Botanic Garden, local beaches, and numerous hiking and biking trails. If you're looking for a respite from the hustle of life, this is the place.

For more information on Cliff Hickman, visit hickmandesigns.com -- he designed and built several homes on the American Riviera. The story of his first residence is remarkable.
