About This Home

As of July 2025

Tranquil Oaks. Here you can have it all, just around the corner from Upper Village in Montecito. A secret retreat AND an Entertainment Showplace. This a serene and secluded one-acre sanctuary designed by noted Montecito architect Bob Easton. The gracious, nearly 5,000 square feet three bedroom split level, three and half bath home exemplifies classic Mediterranean style.
The Master Suite is not just one room, it is an entire wing. Nestled at the end of a cul-de-sac, this exquisite residence is accessed through a historic neighborhood filled with classic homes and is adjacent to Montecito's Upper Village
Enter the property via artistic rusted iron private gates that open slowly and lead to the port cochere and three-car garage As you step into the foyer of Tranquil Oaks, you are greeted by soaring wood beam ceilings that rise dramatically over the impressive grand main room with floor-to-ceiling windows, built-in bookcases, and a fireplace. Handsome Saltillo tile floors throughout lead to the formal dining room, adorned with a tasteful chandelier and flanked by columns. This, and other rooms, are featured by French doors that open to several brick patios, into an enchanting garden with California Coastal live oak trees, ivy-covered follies, and a spacious lawn. The kitchen, designed for both functionality and aesthetic appeal, opens to a grand den or
secondary sitting room with a fireplace. A few steps lead to the expansive master suite, tucked away with a luxurious bath. At the opposite end of the house, two additional en-suite bedrooms each with their baths provide comfort and privacy.
In the heart of Montecito, this prestigious property stands as a testament to timeless beauty and unparalleled craftsmanship. The lovingly cultivated grounds invite you to explore and revel in the natural splendor that surrounds you.
