About this home

Nestled in nature, ''Big Rock Ranch'' encompasses 55 acres of endless sweeping views, serenity and top of the world living. This ranch compound includes a beautifully remodeled main home, separate guest house with garage/workshop, large outbuilding with covered RV parking, Pool, Casitas and 2 uniquely rustic cabins. Sculpted by nature, enormous boulders give peek-a-boo puzzle cutouts of Santa Barbara and the ocean and Islands beyond. Explore bucolic flora and fauna trails in your own 55 acre backyard. Ideally located within minutes to Santa Barbara, the mountain calls you home at night to be mesmerized by panoramic sunsets and stars so bright the universe seems closer.
