About This Home

Beautifully positioned in Santa Barbara's sought-after Riviera neighborhood, this Alturas Del Sol residence is a striking blend of dramatic architecture and sophisticated livability. Initially crafted by renowned architect Barry Berkus and later reimagined by Richard Johnson, the home is filled with abundant natural light and offers captivating ocean and mountain views. Inside, the architecture celebrates expansive volumes, highlighted by glass railings that provide an uninterrupted connection to the breathtaking outdoors. These contemporary features amplify the home's open atmosphere, allowing light and views to pour into each room. Expansive windows frame the picturesque surroundings, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow perfect for serene relaxation or elegant entertaining. Every detail of the home pays homage to timeless modern design, with spaces thoughtfully crafted to celebrate the art of architecture and the natural beauty of Santa Barbara's Riviera.

The primary suite is a private sanctuary thoughtfully situated in its own wing for ultimate seclusion. This luxurious space includes a spa-like en-suite bathroom, a secluded ocean-view patio, and a sitting rooma retreat within a retreat. The primary suite epitomizes tranquility and refinement with ample space and stunning vistas, creating an exclusive escape that feels deeply connected to the surrounding landscape.

Outside, low-maintenance landscaping enhances the property's natural beauty. Stone terraces and open outdoor areas maximize the panoramic views, while the streamlined, modern design requires minimal upkeep. Located just minutes from the shopping, dining, and entertainment of Montecito and Santa Barbara, with a community tennis court only steps away, this Alturas Del Sol home captures the essence of elevated coastal living on Santa Barbara's Riviera.
