The main residence is a bright and inviting 2,124 square foot sanctuary featuring four bedrooms and three bathrooms, each room with its own stunning vistas and ever-changing light play. A detached 821 square foot guest suite/studio complete with a full kitchen, bath and laundry, serves as a self-contained retreat for guests or a plethora of other activities. For those seeking a touch of whimsy, an enchanting 187 square foot "Hobbit House" offers a unique escape for meditation or creativity, complemented by a detached bath featuring an invigorating outdoor shower that allows you to bathe in natural beauty. Automotive enthusiasts or hobbyists will appreciate the oversized garage with ample storage. A separate motorcycle garage can also serve as an artist studio or creative workshop. Designed for entertainment, the large main terrace features an outdoor kitchen and ample space for guests to dine against a backdrop of panoramic mountain and ocean vistas. Large, multi-level open spaces transition seamlessly to host a variety of gathering activities. A new seven seat salt water hot tub offers a rejuvenating soaking experience under a vibrant canopy of star filled skies. The model of modern energy-efficiency and self-sufficiency, the property is supplied by a private water system fed continuously by a mountain spring and a deep well, an owned updated solar system and Starlink high speed internet. Dimmable LED lights, dual heat pump HVAC and an integrated security system are part of the attention to detail. Located in the highly desirable Cold Spring School District, this gated private oasis offers incomparable privacy, views and comfort, yet is located just ten minutes to the Upper or Lower Villages and fifteen minutes from the heart of Santa Barbara.
