SANTA BARBARA, CA 93103

The architecture sets the tone from the moment you arrive - clean lines, open volumes, mid-century modern in the best sense. But it's the relationship between the house and its setting that really stays with you. The light moves through beautifully, morning to evening, and the mountain views shift with it in ways that never get old. Dramatic, cozy, effortlessly alive - this house holds all of it. Inside, the kitchen blends original mid-century character with serious modern cooking - Liebherr, Gaggenau, and Bertazzoni - with mountain views on full display. The primary suite offers a classic ensuite bath, fireplace, and a private deck that makes mornings genuinely hard to leave. Two additional bedrooms and a spacious home office round it out. The full acre has been left as found - an open meadow, unfenced and unhurried, where deer and birds are still very much at home. Above the meadow, thoughtfully designed ADU plans were created by Ferguson-Ettinger Architects. Private and serene, yet remarkably close to everything: Francheschi Park, Parma Park, Cold Spring Trail, biking up Gibraltar Road, world-class dining in Montecito and Santa Barbara - all minutes away. This is a place that feels discovered rather than built - though of course, it was both.
