Set atop a picturesque hill and framed by vineyards and orchards, this peaceful Santa Ynez Valley ranch captures sweeping mountain and valley views within the highly sought-after Ballard School District. Spanning approximately five acres behind private entry gates, the property's centerpiece is a beautifully remodeled residence that blends timeless ranch charm with elevated modern comfort. The main home offers four bedrooms plus an office and three-and-a-half bathrooms, complemented by a separately accessed fifth bedroom with full bath—ideal as a guest retreat, gym, library, or au pair suite. Thoughtfully updated throughout, the home features wide-plank French oak flooring, beamed ceilings, limestone fireplaces, newer windows and doors, and refined, high-quality finishes at every turn. The expansive living room showcases breathtaking 180-degree views across rolling hills to iconic Figueroa Mountain and opens seamlessly to a serene covered porch and lush, manicured gardens beyond. At the heart of the home, the remodeled kitchen is both striking and functional, with honed granite countertops, a custom statement island, professional Viking range, coffee bar, and an additional beverage refrigerator perfect for both everyday living and entertaining. The flowing floor plan offers multiple inviting living spaces with effortless access to outdoor decks, dining patios, and garden areas. The primary suite features vaulted ceilings, dual closets, a beautifully remodeled bath, and an adjacent flex space currently used as an office. A separate guest wing includes two bedrooms with a dual-entry bath, a generous laundry and mudroom, powder room, and an additional upstairs bedroom-and-bath suite. Designed with the casual equestrian in mind, the property includes a barn, four stalls, lighted arena, two horse corrals, and a charming chicken coop. Majestic heritage oaks, mature fruit trees, and vibrant gardens enhance the natural beauty of the setting, while owned solar panels and a four-car garage with electric vehicle charging add modern convenience. Ideally located just minutes from Los Olivos, Ballard, and the heart of Santa Ynez Valley wine country, this exceptional ranch offers privacy, beauty, and an enviable lifestyle in one of the region's most coveted locations.
