Cresta Ave, Hope Ranch - Santa Barbara

Artfully designed with meticulous attention to detail and uncompromised quality, this nearly new Andalucian style residence is sited on an unmatchable 2.5+/- acre estate setting. The gated entry leads to a winding drive that enters onto a beautifully conceived motor court with ample space for numerous guests. The dramatic front entry is a perfect introduction to the home that lies beyond. The graceful curve of the main stairway is enhanced by custom imported tiles, while the korbels decorating the dramatic trussed ceilings with lovingly designed by members of the family. Each room has its own special character - a wet bar in the living room, curved fireplace in the dining room, a view filled breakfast bay, and exquisite wooden details in the library/media room. The perfectly planned kitchen has a central island, serving counter and top-of-the-line appliances, and opens to the inviting family room with fireplace. French doors enhance all of the rooms and hallways of the main level and lead to delightful courtyards, restful porches, and an outdoor kitchen and patio with wonderful fountain and fireplace.
The upper level of the residence is reached via a grand circular stairway, overlooking the stunning entry and formal living room. The master suite includes a sumptuous bedroom area, spacious walk-in closet and elegant bathroom. A protected outdoor terrace is ideal for relaxing and watching the ever-changing colors of the Pacific Ocean and the Channel Islands. Another balcony leads to the winding stairs that flow down to the outdoor patio area with fireplace. Two additional bedrooms suites complete the upper level.
The property itself is a garden paradise. As you stroll through the lushly landscaped property, you will find all the amenities you will desire - a beautiful pool surrounded by tropical plantings and lawns, a quaint pool house, north-south tennis court, a producing orchard, an 800 sq. ft. separate workshop, and the spacious guest house - most enjoying the panoramic views. This is truly a piece of paradise.
