Perched atop a secluded mountaintop, this exceptional estate, built in 1996, offers an unparalleled retreat where rugged landscapes meet endless skies. Designed to immerse you in its natural surroundings, the property provides a profound connection to the landscape, set across 16 acres of pristine beauty. Breathtaking 360-degree views encompass the ocean, islands, rolling hills, and the glimmering lights of Santa Barbara below. Gated and highly private, the property consists of 5,554 sq. ft. of living space, featuring a Spanish-style main residence with 4 bedrooms, an office, and 3.5 bathrooms, along with a spacious 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom guest house on a nine-acre parcel. An additional seven-acre parcel is also included, presenting potential for future development. The 4,713-square-foot main home boasts an open-concept design with ceilings soaring up to 16 feet, light-filled interiors, and wide-plank oak flooring, enhancing the airy ambiance and harmonizing with the surrounding natural beauty. South-facing walls of glass and a wraparound terrace provide panoramic views from sunrise to sunset. The spacious kitchen, equipped with three GE ovens, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, two sinks, and ample seating, is complemented by a wet bar, butler's pantry, and two generous dining areas. The circular main floor includes a cozy living room with a fireplace, an office, a loft, and a luxurious primary suite with a Carrera marble bathroom featuring a dual vanity, soaking tub, and breathtaking coastline views. On the lower level, a private apartment includes a kitchenette, full bathroom, abundant storage, and a separate entrance. Beyond the expansive driveway lies an 841-square-foot guest house, offering a full kitchen and stunning 360-degree views. Both the main and guest houses are equipped with air conditioning, a total of five garage bays, and a majestic pool with a spa, surrounded by flagstone hardscaping, fruit trees (pomegranate, Asian pear, apple, persimmon, and five different types of citrus trees), native plants, and natural boulders. Steeped in the history of the indigenous Chumash tribe, Painted Cave is located just 15 minutes above Santa Barbara, 10 minutes from the popular Cold Spring Tavern, and 30 minutes from Mattei's Tavern and other Santa Ynez Valley hotspots. Thoughtfully maintained and owned by an engineer, the property is designed for safety, comfort, and sustainability. It operates on solar power with three Tesla Powerwall's and city power backup, a private well with three reserve tanks, three propane tanks, gas-engine water pumps, and 28,000 gallons of pool water with pumping capabilities providing a seamless off-grid experience with every modern convenience in a truly one-of-a-kind setting.
