Step into a Montecito masterpiece—an elevated Wonderland where whimsy, art, and maximalist design create a world like no other. Tucked at the end of a shared driveway below East Valley Road, this premier estate combines privacy, drama, and sophistication, all just moments from the charming Upper Village.

Set on lush, gated grounds, this classic California rancher has been transformed into a true statement home—an inspired blend of international materials, custom craftsmanship, balanced proportions, and the effortless flow of indoor-outdoor California living. Every inch of the 4,032-square-foot main residence and 885-square-foot guest villa was designed with intention, layering color, texture, and light to transform everyday living into a curated experience reminiscent of a boutique hotel.  

Inside the three-bedroom, three-bath main home, discover an idyllic balance of bold design and true comfort. Moody living spaces are thoughtfully arranged, while soaring vaulted ceilings, custom steel doors, geometric wall treatments, and whimsical wall coverings evoke both antique tapestry and fashionable camouflage. Rare details, including discontinued Hermès wallpaper, infuse the interiors with an air of exclusivity, while plush lounges and intimate alcoves create an inviting atmosphere that is playful and stylish.  

The main home flows seamlessly through its living, family, dining, and den areas—each a carefully crafted setting that connects directly to the outdoors. The striking kitchen, a design enthusiast’s dream, makes a bold statement in the center of the home, where moody hues meet abundant natural light in perfect balance. 

The primary suite, in its own private wing, serves as an exquisite sanctuary, with Phillip Jeffries wall coverings, a separate sleeping area, dressing room, expansive closet, and a dedicated lounge that opens an entire wall to the outdoors. Guest suites are equally considered, designed to accommodate both privacy and connection. Custom-built daybeds transform from sofas by day to twin beds by night, while private nooks with living rooms and baths allow residents or guests to shift seamlessly between communal gathering and private retreat. Expanding the home’s living space is the detached Parisian-style guest villa. Featuring three design-forward bedrooms, two baths, and a living room that opens to the outdoors, it makes for a glamorous, private getaway for visitors.  

Throughout the estate, walls of floor-to-ceiling steel-framed windows and doors open to patios perfectly level with the interior, creating an effortless interaction with the gardens that surround the home. Every space was imagined as part of a continuous experience—east to west, north to south, indoors to out—creating a seamless flow throughout the home and immersing daily life with a harmonious connection to nature. Adding to that is 9,000 square feet of antique marble flooring that extends from indoors to the exterior living areas. It’s complemented by 3,000 square feet of custom Italian and French tilework at the showstopping cabana and pool area—an unmistakable focal point in the backyard.

Multiple covered and uncovered living spaces, a hand-poured fit pit, lush trees and landscaping, and a sports court expand the property’s lifestyle offerings, creating a private world designed for gathering, entertaining, and making everyday feel like an escape.
