Discover a distinctive expression of Hope Ranch living in this beautifully furnished, fully gated estate, privately set beneath a canopy of mature oaks. Blending elevated ranch style with polished interiors and unexpected moments of whimsy, the residence offers warmth, character, and understated luxury in one of Santa Barbara’s most coveted communities.
The interiors are defined by soaring, white-painted beam ceilings, dark wood floors, abundant natural light, and a graceful connection to the surrounding landscape. At the heart of the home, an expansive chef’s kitchen pairs classic cabinetry and generous preparation space with substantial stainless-steel appliances, a large central island, and an adjoining dining area designed for effortless gathering.
Multiple living spaces provide both scale and intimacy. A dramatic fireside lounge opens through a wall of French doors to the grounds, while a second light-filled living room offers vaulted ceilings, comfortable furnishings, and room for entertaining. Thoughtfully collected artwork, books, textiles, and furnishings lend the home a sophisticated yet playful personality—elegant without feeling formal.
The primary suite includes a beautifully designed dressing room with custom glass-front cabinetry, a central storage island, and chandelier lighting. Flexible bedroom accommodations and separate guest quarters provide privacy and versatility for family, visitors, or a dedicated work-from-home retreat.
Outside, brick terraces overlook peaceful pastoral scenery framed by heritage oaks, white fencing, and distant foothills. The setting feels wonderfully secluded, yet remains convenient to downtown Santa Barbara, the airport, UCSB, private schools, shopping, dining, and major commuter routes.
Residents also enjoy the celebrated Hope Ranch lifestyle, including access to the community’s private beach, tennis courts, and miles of scenic walking and equestrian trails.
Fully furnished and offered for a 12-month lease, this exceptional residence presents a rare opportunity to settle into the privacy, beauty, and relaxed sophistication of Hope Ranch
