Inspired by French country architecture and infused with casual elegance, this Montecito estate is a masterclass in intentional design, blending vintage charm with modern sophistication. Nestled behind a private wall in the MUS school district, the 3,541 sq. ft. residence offers privacy and convenience, just a short stroll from the Miramar Hotel, world-class beaches, and Coast Village Road. The striking exterior features a classic Mansard roof clad in Brazilian Black Slate, custom copper details, and a gated driveway with ample parking.
Inside, the home showcases French white oak flooring, handmade brick, and curated finishes that exude warmth and style. The main residence includes three bedrooms, two and a half baths, and a versatile room for an office or guest space.. while a separate full outdoor bathroom adds convenience. The kitchen is both stylish and functional, with Thermador appliances, a Shaws farmhouse sink, and a pass-through window connecting seamlessly to the resort-style backyard, complete with a pool, spa, bocce court, putting green, and surf shed.
Completing the property is The Cabana, a 509 sq. ft. ADU designed as a private retreat. Featuring a full eat-in kitchen with a restored 1940s Wedgwood stove, custom-built beds and closets, a finished attic for extra storage, and a 1920s SoHo-style bathroom with custom iron and glass work, this space offers flexibility for guests or additional living. With its seamless blend of craftsmanship, curated vintage elements, and a prime Montecito location, this home is a rare opportunity for privacy, luxury, and effortless coastal living.
