Set up off the street, the deep lawn and motor court leads to this true Spanish style home, reminiscent of the stately elegance of Montecito. Framed by ancient oaks, smooth stucco exterior, divided pane - deep set windows and sage green trim are offset by the terra cotta tile roof. Crimson bougainvillea grows over the covered entry with double doors that open to the marble tiled foyer. Single steps lead to the formal dining, living and family rooms and directly across from the entry, two French doors open to the charming outdoor living area, the pool and spa. The owner's suite upstairs includes a raised hearth fireplace, large walk-in closet, and a serene en-suite bath with a free-standing tub, and centered shower. The chef's kitchen features an arched opening that houses the 6 burner Wolfe range with a full complement of appliances, center island and exquisite breakfast room that could also serve as a sitting room. Landscaped for total privacy, the back yard features the arroyo with ancient oaks, mature trees across the back wall and a lovely grassy area. Designed for entertaining that flows from the inside to the serene outdoor spaces, this elegant home is the essence of Montecito with the convenience of living in North Ranch.
