Villa Riposa Enchanting and elegant, Villa Riposa (House of Repose) sits on over two acres at the end of a private lane in the heart of Montecito. It is within walking distance of the upper village and enjoys expansive mountain views. Grand, yet cozy and approachable, this very special estate takes one back to yesteryear while being thoroughly modern. Villa Riposa has been lovingly restored and expanded by the current owners who respected the design of the original 1927 structure. While able to accommodate a large family, this property is also intimate enough for a couple welcoming weekend guests. Wrought iron gates open to a grass-pattern driveway framing the stunning architecture replete with red tile roofs, stone walls, inviting gardens and fragrant orange trees. Set in the midst of lush strolling gardens, the two-story house includes 5 bedrooms, 4 full baths and 2 powder rooms. Sunlight filters through the many windows; oak plank floors and tiles glossed to a perfect shine add to the ambience. Indulge your guests with the spacious three bedrooms, two and a half bath guest house and pool cabana. The car enthusiast will enjoy the two-car garage and adjacent tree-car garage which completes the motor courtyard. Designed for entertaining, inside and out, more formal affairs can be held in the handsome living room and dining room, while the family room, off the showcase kitchen, offers a more relaxed setting.
