Romantic. Playful. Effortless. Inspired by the simplicity of a 1920s Andalusian hacienda, this single-level Golden Quadrangle compound recalls an earlier Montecito, where days unfold outdoors by the pool & life gathers around gardens, tables & courtyards. Beyond carved wooden doors, a secluded acre becomes a private village: morning coffee in the sun, afternoons on the lawn & shaded patios, evenings of long dinners, board games, & conversation under the trees. The 3BD/3.5BA main residence opens to the gardens, while a 2BD guest cottage & two detached studios offer privacy for guests, work, or creativity. Stay a little longer -- there's an open door policy!
