''La Querencia''- a magical place of strength, safety, and sense of home. Nestled along the Alamo Pintado wine trail, this enchanting 37+ acre estate is located in the heart of Santa Ynez Valley, within the sought-after Ballard School District. This private retreat offers a sense of home and quality, evoking early Santa Ynez and California ranch living. The property's in-town location provides convenience, while its secluded setting among majestic old-growth oak trees ensures privacy. A gated entrance leads to a tree-lined driveway, flanked by antique stone pillars, winding over a bridge and through park-like grounds, creating a sanctuary-like atmosphere. The 1930s farmhouse is nestled amid mature trees and a seasonal creek. This classic California ranch house exudes warmth and charm featuring a sun-filled living room with a large wood-burning fireplace and a marvelous screened sunroom. Over time, the home expanded to include 6 bedrooms, centered around a kitchen with a dual-sided fireplace and French doors opening to the patio and BBQ areas. A butler's pantry leads to a formal dining room and an additional screened porch, perfect for larger gatherings. The home retains much of its original charm, including hardwood floors, brick fireplaces, tongue-and-groove ceilings, and French doors, while blending old-world charm with modern comforts. The house is complete with a 2-car garage, 2 additional covered car spaces, and an office.The estate also features a detached one-bedroom guest house, stables, barns, and two front pastures. Seventeen acres of land on the upper plateau offer opportunities for vines, pastures, or natural preservation. The outdoor amenities include a sparkling swimming pool, spa, tri-tip BBQ area, and tennis/pickleball court, all set against a backdrop of stunning natural beauty.Positioned at the forefront of the renowned wine trail, it's just a stone's throw from the beautiful areas of Ballard, Solvang, Santa Ynez, and Los Olivos. Conveniently close to schools, specialty grocery stores, award winning bakeries, local coffee shops, boutiques, and prized restaurants, this property offers both tranquility and accessibility.
