This relaxing 4BR/3.5BA property is a joy inside and out, offering the luxury of a fine hotel with all the comforts of home. Refined yet warm and family-friendly, the house features contemporary decor and expansive garden. There are hardwood, slate and tile floors throughout, keeping the home cool and comfortable throughout the summer months. A stone path leads to the front door. The entryway opens onto the main living space with fine Japanese furnishings. The living room is spacious and inviting with a grand piano, fireplace, vaulted ceiling and oversized French doors leading into the garden. A large and contemporary kitchen with black granite counter tops and high-end stainless steel appliances is stocked with everything imaginable to satisfy chefs and guests. Two dining areas, one casual in the kitchen and one formal provide a choice of seating options. A comfy family room with TV/ entertainment system opens onto a patio with BBQ for dining outside, perfect for summer meals with family and friends. Another family TV/entertainment room just off the kitchen and with outdoor access is great for kids, grandparents or just some private time. A spiral staircase leads upstairs to a large loft area with skylight, a great getaway with desk to catch up on emails with high-speed internet, or open area for your workout, yoga and meditation. Four private bedrooms offer peace and quiet as well as quality queen beds and linen with great closet space. Three of these bedrooms have full ensuite bathrooms. The master has a walk-in shower with deep soaking tub, and double sink. Sliding French doors in almost every room give the house an indoor-outdoor feel. Outside, off the kitchen and family rooms, is a patio with large table that seats 10, umbrella, and heat lamps. Enjoy your morning coffee with the hummingbirds and squirrels. The garden features beautiful landscaping, fruit trees (orange, lemon, plum, peach and avocado) and large grassy area, great for bocce ball or badminton. Head off to the pool area where the Endless Pool (10' x 16') provides an adjustable current for swimming or water exercise. Solar-heated, its temperature hovers comfortably in the 80s during summer, spring and fall. The pool comes with fully retractable cover which keeps it safe, warm and clean. A relaxing hot tub with seating for six soothes the body and nourishes the soul. Pristine beaches and access to breathtaking hikes and world-class cycling trails are within walking or biking distance. Also minutes away are Montecito’s Upper and Lower Villages’ high-end shopping and delectable dining. Santa Barbara prides itself on being one of the most breathtaking coastal towns in the country. Montecito is the place to be for star-gazing (of both kinds!), hiking, cycling, sun-bathing, shopping and dining. This house is perfect for entertaining and relaxing with a feeling of seclusion yet close to everything. Our home is great for a romantic getaway, family vacation, small reunion, or just a weekend with friends. Experience the full Santa Barbara lifestyle in this amazing place. We love our home of almost 20 years and are always striving to make staying in it warm and inviting for family, friends and guests alike. We do not allow weddings or large parties and request a maximum of 8 guests. There is parking for three cars in the driveway.
