About This Home
Count your lucky stars at this epic 3.41 acre Montecito garden compound on beautiful Buena Vista Drive with dreamy ocean and mountain views. Spanning 2 legal parcels, the 1933 Spanish Colonial main residence offers approximately 6,000 square feet, 4 bedrooms, and 3.5 baths, blending the architectural intention of the 1930s with a thoughtful 1999 restoration by Ketzel & Goodman. Romantic courtyards and covered loggias draw light, air, landscape, and views into nearly every room. This rare offering unfolds across lush, private grounds designed by landscape architect Sydney Baumgartner, featuring mature orchards, flourishing gardens, sprawling lawns, a putting green, and 3 separate entry gates. Two additional guest cottages spill over with period charm from the 1920s and 1930s.
