Architectural and botanical paradise – a true work of art. This masterfully renovated estate will open your heart and truly connect you to your soul. Expand your horizon with infinite ocean, island, mountain and coastal views. Crafted from a singular vision of living in peace and harmony with nature. Featured in Santa Barbara Magazine, the celebrated and award-winning architectural designer, Xorin Balbes, has redefined the art of home with his heart-expanding restoration.
The Japanese mid-century modern residence is infused with a tranquil energy of nature and a sophisticated spirit. On approximately 2.26 acres, the gated, resort-like compound is completely unique. The inspired residence transcends you to another realm using materials and fixtures from Germany, Amsterdam, and Italy.
Everyday living becomes extraordinary. Wander the romantic creekside paths, over bridges, past ponds, native boulders, a bamboo forest, citrus trees and succulent, cactus and sculpture gardens to find new inspiration at every turn. With unparalleled vision and exemplary craftsmanship, the residence delivers the ultimate lifestyle experience.
Privacy and beauty abound throughout the entire property. The master suite occupies its own wing of the main residence surrounded by terraces offering endless ocean views, a copper Japanese soaking tub and fire pits for cool evenings al fresco.
Blending artistic vision with practical conveniences, the kitchen is bordered by a wall of glass that opens to a magnificent rock garden and stone terraces. Every room has been thoughtfully envisioned and designed to weave a cohesive story throughout the home – one that is filled with love. The dramatic living and dining rooms (indoor and outdoor) anchor the center of the residence offering expansive and peaceful views of Santa Barbara.
Completing the main living area of the residence is an ocean-view office, meditation room with en suite bathroom, an 800-bottle temperature-controlled wine room and the ultimate family/media room – with floor to ceiling windows and doors offering views of the magnificent exterior gardens.
Three guest suites occupy their own wing of the house with a separate entrance, each with their own en suite bathroom, sitting area and private garden. The largest guest suite could easily be a guest house on its own with a living room, wood-burning fireplace and kitchenette. Two additional guest suites offer vignettes of the gardens and architecture from every window.
