About this home

Located on Santa Barbara's esteemed Foxen Canyon Wine Trail, this 7.5-acre vineyard estate with a 4,500± sqft, 4 bed, 4 bath modern farmhouse was crafted by combining the original ranch home and barn. The home strikes a balance of old and new by blending old-world aesthetics in the way of antique vanities, repurposed doors and fixtures with custom lighting, farmhouse whites, contrasting dark grays and elements of wood and iron. The center island kitchen features a Thermador chef's range and Calacatta Lazaro quartz countertops. Panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and vineyards are fully realized with oversized windows and French doors throughout the home. The wood-lined ceilings, exposed beams and original adobe style fireplaces emanate California flair and the wine cellar offers a home for beloved vintages. Step outside and enter a lifestyle complete with bocce court, green house, authentic cedar hot tub, tree house and raised gardening beds. The food forest thrives with an impressive 40+ tree orchard consisting of 19 fruit species and edible shrubs and perennials. Attached to the classic red barn is a glass-walled artist studio and upstairs boasts a 1 bed, 1 bath guest dwelling with vaulted ceilings and full kitchen. The 1.63-acre premium vineyard is planted to Pinot Noir, Syrah, Mourvèdre and Grenache and offers an opportunity for vineyard and wine production to any degree desired. The property is agriculturally zoned and features a private well producing 25+ GPM.
