Some homes have a way of stopping you in your tracks. This is one of them.
Quietly tucked at the end of a long private drive on prestigious Picacho Lane, this newly reimagined estate balances classic Montecito charm with a fresh, modern sensibility. Set against a breathtaking backdrop of ocean and mountain views, the home unfolds with an effortless sense of elegance—inviting you to slow down, settle in, and savor every detail.
The architecture speaks in soft tones, with limewashed walls that catch the changing light, windows that frame the landscape, and fluid marble veining that adds warmth to contemporary lines. A seamless connection between indoors and out makes entertaining easy, whether you’re hosting a dinner party on the covered patio as the sun dips below the horizon or unwinding in the living room, where the sea views steal the show.
Designed with both beauty and function in mind, the floor plan is thoughtful and intuitive. The chef’s kitchen is a dream, complete with an oversized island, coffee station, and a generous prep pantry.
Contiguous public rooms have a smooth flow and open to the spectacular views and multiple outdoor entertaining spaces. Upstairs, the primary suite serves as a quiet retreat with a private media/sitting room offering the perfect spot for cozy movie nights. An elevator connects all three levels with ease and 4 additional rooms offer maximum flexibility as guest bedrooms and/or office space.
Beyond the main house, the estate continues to impress. A chic guest house sits above the three-car garage, ideal for extended stays or visiting family, while a secluded cabin retreat offers an unexpected hideaway tucked into the landscape.
This is more than a home—it’s an experience. A place where ocean breezes mix with the scent of jasmine in the air, where morning coffee tastes better on the veranda, and where every inch of the property has been designed for comfort, beauty, and a life well-lived.
If you’ve been waiting for something truly special in Montecito, this is it.
This Picacho Lane estate is being offered for $22,500,000. To schedule a visit, contact the Riskin Partners Estate Group at 805-565-8600 or team@riskinpartners.com.
