After an extensive renovation by Marc Appleton, this reimagined estate is Montecito's most coveted offering. Stunning interiors beautifully balance sophistication & ease. Clean lines pair with rich woods, curated details, exquisite fixtures to create a home that is minimal, rich, and utterly luxe. An ocean view primary suite features two closets and an office/lounge which could be an additional bedroom. The residence stands in reciprocity with the land, each classic yet rooted with a modern sensibility for how we live today. Steel doors open to stone terraces with silvery olives in the foreground & ocean views on the horizon. With destinations to entertain and play, the pool/spa & outdoor spaces celebrate the best of Montecito's coveted lifestyle. Landscape & Concept ADU plans by W. Hefner
