Property is move-in ready.
This 1977-built home is in immaculate, move-in-ready condition, fitting the 'Good' criteria perfectly. While the interior design leans traditional, the property has clearly undergone significant maintenance and partial updates within the 5-15 year range. The kitchen features updated stone countertops and a stainless steel refrigerator, though some white appliances remain. Bathrooms have been modernized with clean white subway tiling and updated vanities. The home's infrastructure, including recessed lighting and floor-to-ceiling glass doors, appears well-maintained with no visible deferred maintenance, making it highly functional despite its vintage origins.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 43560, living area = 2600.
Situated directly on the first fairway of the prestigious Birnam Wood Country Club, the property offers a rare combination of lush golf course frontage and stunning mountain views within a secure, gated community.
The home features a completely step-free, single-level floor plan with no interior or exterior thresholds, providing an ideal layout for buyers prioritizing long-term mobility and ease of living.
With a list price of $6.5 million for 2,600 square feet, the property sits at a high price-per-square-foot valuation that may be a hurdle for buyers comparing it to larger estates in the area.
Built in 1977, the home may require significant capital investment for modernizing systems and interior finishes to align with current luxury market expectations in Montecito.
This elegant mountain view single level home was designed for easy Santa Barbara living. Starting at the Birnam front gate, the security guards are cheerful and welcoming. Ease down the drive and about two blocks past the clubhouse, on the edge of the first fairway, sits 2079 Birnam Wood. This is not a sprawling high maintenance estate, but at the core of this home is a stunning grand living room with high ceilings, floor to ceiling glass doors, and a lovely fireplace. (gas or wood burning). The glass doors lead to a large back patio, lawn, and just beyond the ficus hedge is the lush green first fairway. (the hedge is easily adjustable to find that perfect balance of golf course view v.s. privacy, your choice). It's a natural setting for an ideal private hideaway, or for lively parties when occasions arise. There is no front door-step, there are no back door-steps, and there are no step ups or step downs within the home. Easy. There are three en-suite bedrooms.
