1240 East Valley Road, Montecito, CA 93108

Old-world stonework and stately architecture combine with livable, streamlined design at this world-class estate on five park-like acres in Montecito’s prestigious Golden Quadrangle. Just beyond the ornate iron entry gates and encompassed by troves of towering oak and sycamore trees, a commanding circular driveway anchors the property. Immediately apparent is this remarkable estate’s grandeur. The striking facade of the 8,000 square-foot main residence embraces starkly traditional architecture, nimbly channeling Byzantine styles of old—trefoil-arched windows, a stone turret entry, and a wraparound koi-pond moat. The estate, built in 2011 and re-imagined to perfection in 2019 with the creative oversight of a stellar design and architectural team, is offered furnished yet is an equally versatile canvas for the visionary decorator. This secure and secluded hotel-like estate may seem like a world away but is actually only moments from the energy of Coast Village Road and world-renowned country clubs and beach resorts.
