With over 3,000 square feet and four bedrooms and three baths, this enchanting property features luxury finishes throughout and dazzling ocean and canyon views at every turn. This .9-acre parcel in the desirable Cold Spring School

Supplements: attendance area is secluded and private, yet convenient to the restaurants, shopping, and beaches of Montecito and Santa Barbara. The outdoors beckons from every area of the home. Gravel pathways meander through the terraced hillsides, landscaped with lush, yet water-wise, plantings. Inviting decks and patios throughout the property give the sense of separate garden rooms with tranquil views of the mountains, ocean and islands beyond. A beautiful trumpet vine graces the front entry to create a dramatic transition into the home. The sensual curves of a sweeping staircase grace the foyer, leading to an open floor plan with a great room feel. A spacious family room and dining area with beamed ceilings extends through a series of graceful arches to a light-filled living room with a wood-burning fireplace, lustrous hardwood floors and soaring vaulted ceilings with exposed beams. Full-light French doors open to serene island vistas and gentle ocean breezes. An open kitchen features an expansive granite-topped island and breakfast bar, a reverse-osmosis drinking water system, and plentiful deep cookware storage. Appliances include an Electrolux dual oven and a Sub-Zero refrigerator. A deep pantry closet offers additional storage options, and a glass sliding door leads to a delightful terra cotta-tiled patio, allowing for effortless alfresco dining. Dramatic coved niches for showcasing artwork grace the sweeping curved staircase that leads to the hushed ambiance of the upper story. Continuous windows in the master sanctuary frame majestic mountain views on one side of the bedroom and an endless expanse of ocean on the other. The master bedroom boasts a travertine-tiled fireplace, a roomy walk-in closet with abundant custom shelving and storage, and a private tiled sundeck with breathtaking ocean views. The lavish ensuite bath showcases an oversized steam shower, a sumptuous jetted tub and a capacious double vanity. Three additional bedrooms are awash in natural light and open to the outdoors. A winding exterior staircase leads from the front garden to a tiled balcony shared by two of the bedrooms, creating a private entrance and offering a panoramic seascape from each of the rooms. Another bedroom opens to an expansive shady deck, which is wired for a spa tub. The upstairs hallway boasts commodious built-in bookshelves with storage cabinetry, a floor-to-ceiling linen closet, a full bathroom, and access to the back deck and garden. The home features a host of thoughtful upgrades, such as a soft-water conditioning system, dual-zone HVAC with air conditioning, a cedar-lined walk-in closet, and a surround sound system throughout the downstairs, including the patio. The property is equipped with an automated multi-zone drip irrigation system and low-voltage outdoor lighting, and a security system incorporates both fire and burglar alarms. Generous storage, new loop pile carpeting, a separate laundry room with high-efficiency machines, and an attached double garage complete this spectacular home.
