About this home

''Castle in the Sky'' - Designed by local legend, Frank Robinson, with unimaginable views and privacy. Inspired by Barcelona's famed architect, Antoni Gaudí, each adobe brick room is an artistic marvel with elements of Native American wood-art touched by a flair of modernism. A ''five-element'' theme (water, fire, earth, wood, air) runs throughout. Enjoy astounding views while inspiring your most creative thoughts... alone or with friends. Imagine arriving in style using the helicopter pad and hangar. Partially complete, wrap-around swimming pool/moat leads to an indoor hot tub grotto waiting for the new owner's finishing touches. Restore water service either by repairing Thomas fire-damaged private well or with Montecito water meter.
