The New Wave of Luxury on Padaro Lane

Padaro Lane has always represented the pinnacle of California coastal living. It’s where beachfront living meets five-star luxury, and where craftsmanship and location command a global audience.

There are currently six homes for sale on Padaro Lane, ranging from $12.5M to $49.8M, with an average list price above $33M. Over the past sixteen months, five properties have sold, including a record-setting $96M sale in August 2024. It is undeniably one of the most prestigious stretches of coastline in California.

Within this elite collection, two newly reimagined residences stand out, each turn-key and architecturally distinct.

Floating Above the Pacific | 3595 Padaro Lane 

At 3595 Padaro Lane, every line and finish has been reimagined. Architect Don Nulty, landscape architect James Hyatt Studio (San Ysidro Ranch & Four Seasons Biltmore), and interior designers Taylor + Langella Interior Design joined forces with master builder DD Ford Construction to deliver a full ground-up transformation that feels more like a luxury resort than a residence.

With +/- 100 feet of rare ocean frontage, exceptional views, a detached guest house, and a seamless connection between interior and horizon, the home balances architectural clarity with natural ease. White oak floors, quartzite stone, and layered plaster finishes create an atmosphere both tactile and tranquil, the Pacific framed as art.

Designed for Daydreams | 3519 Padaro Lane

Just down the lane, 3519 Padaro Lane offers a more intimate interpretation of coastal sophistication. Conceptualized and executed by Xorin Homes, this stylish beach cottage blends design precision with an effortless, livable warmth.

A reconfigured floor plan, Miele appliances, Ann Sacks tile, and rift-sawn oak cabinetry bring craftsmanship to every corner, while custom lighting and natural textures echo the surrounding shoreline. Outdoors, layered landscaping, firepits, and water features extend the experience, a home that doesn’t just overlook the beach, but lives in rhythm with it.

Padaro has always been about ocean, light, and legacy and it continues to deliver everything today's beachfront buyer is looking for.

Little Mountain in Montecito

There’s a new reason to dine in Montecito’s Upper Village. Little Mountain Montecito, the highly anticipated new restaurant from Chilean born chef Diego Moya, has opened its doors on San Ysidro Road, adding fresh energy to the Santa Barbara dining scene. Moya, known for his work at Casa Mono in New York and Astrid y Gastón in Lima, brings an ingredient driven, wood fired approach to California cuisine.

His seasonal menu highlights Montecito’s backyard bounty — think grilled kale with mojo de ajo, Santa Barbara sea urchin with winter citrus, and rainbow trout with maitake mushrooms. Designed by Andrew Cosbie, the restaurant’s warm terracotta tones, wood finishes, and open hearth create a space that feels effortlessly inviting.

With its focus on local ingredients, global technique, and timeless California style, Little Mountain is sure to become one of Montecito’s best new restaurants.

That sums it up for last week!
