Nestled in the heart of Montecito, this distinguished 1920s estate—once owned by Lori Saunders of Petticoat Junction—graces nearly three-quarters of an acre, seamlessly blending privacy, luxury, and timeless charm. The main residence features 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, where French doors open to tranquil gardens, a versatile studio, and a dedicated vegetable garden. Avocado and assorted fruit trees enrich the grounds, adding to the estate's serene ambiance. A separate 1-bedroom, 1-bath guest house further enhances the property, which also offers ample space for a pool or pickleball court. Just moments from the ocean, it presents the ideal coastal retreat. Situated within the highly coveted Montecito Union School District, this offering embodies both sophistication and sanctuary.
