About This Home

As of September 2019

ENJOY BREATHTAKING OCEAN, ISLAND, CITY & SUNSET VIEWS as you step into elegant, sustainable living. This GREEN BUILT 100% solar American Arts & Crafts designer home was impeccably constructed to Platinum Leed standards by Allen Construction in 2010. Nestled into a terraced ocean-view hillside of colorful drought-tolerant foliage, every detail has been carefully chosen to align with the contemporary Craftsman theme, including exquisite custom hardware, doors, cabinetry, tiles and lighting. Vaulted ceilings, skylights and abundant custom windows flood every room with light and all of the main living areas, including the master suite, have sweeping ocean vistas, even from the master bathtub and glass-enclosed shower! This stunning, one-of-a-kind showcase property also has ... a separate studio/office and two gazebos. With a private retreat-like ambience, it is conveniently close to two chic dining/shopping areas of Montecito and a 5 minute drive to beautiful Butterfly Beach.

There is an extra parking space that goes with this property at the top of the driveway on the other side of the hedge.
