Privately gated and approached by a long, winding country road, this commanding hilltop estate is set within the prestigious enclave of Rancho Ynecita, encompassing approximately 19.5 acres with sweeping, unobstructed panoramic views across the Santa Ynez Valley and surrounding mountains. The residence is primarily single-level in living, thoughtfully organized around a tranquil central courtyard that serves as the architectural heart of the home. Five French doors—three from the living room and two from interior hallways—open to the courtyard, allowing the soothing sound of the fountain water feature to resonate throughout the interiors and establishing a refined indoor-outdoor dialogue. Recently and extensively remodeled, the home seamlessly blends timeless Spanish character.
