For those who dream of escaping the noise, tucked behind gates on a private Montecito lane lies a reimagined single-level retreat that blends timeless Spanish architecture with effortless California living. Conveniently located near MUS and Montecito's Upper and Lower Villages, the home has been thoughtfully remodeled with refined detail and features four bedrooms, three bathrooms, and a den across an airy, open layout with vaulted ceilings, wide-plank oak floors, and Nano doors that open to outdoor living. The kitchen, with honed marble counters, custom cabinetry, and a walk-in butler's pantry, connects seamlessly to the living and dining areas. Set on over an acre of mature gardens, flagstone patios, and a bocce court, this property offers privacy, light, and the relaxed sophistication.
