About this home
This Ten Acre Ocean View Property currently offers a newer guest residence, large workshop, extensive infrastructure, and active expansion plans, representing a rare large-scale coastal estate property within Santa Barbara city limits close to all the best of Montecito and Santa Barbara. It was previously entitled for a 6,673± square foot estate compound including residence, garage, decks, and pool.
A beautifully engineered gated drive curves through meadows, pepper trees and palms, arriving at sweeping mountain, coastline, and island views that unfold across the property beneath Gibraltar and a panorama of Santa Barbara’s front country, framed by majestic scenery and a remarkable sense of scale and drama.
Substantial infrastructure has already been completed across the property. The property is serviced by 3-phase power, a 2-inch agricultural water meter, and 1-inch domestic water supporting a wide range of estate, agricultural, creative, and workshop uses.
With substantial groundwork already completed, the property offers a compelling blend of privacy, utility, scale, and flexibility within Santa Barbara city limits. The parcel’s size, infrastructure, and existing access configuration may also present additional estate planning or development opportunities, subject to City approvals.
A rare lifestyle opportunity on Mountain Drive with convenient access to Montecito, the Upper East, and downtown Santa Barbara....
