A quietly elegant Montecito retreat set on 1.36 acres, this private compound offers a sense of openness, ease, and connection to its surroundings. Once home to Hollywood legend Jane Russell, the 3,678± sq ft main residence sits on a private road and has been thoughtfully updated for contemporary living while preserving its original warmth and character. Light-filled interiors feel open and relaxed, flowing naturally outdoors for an effortless indoor-outdoor lifestyle.
The property lives like a small estate with pool and spa, pool house, outdoor sports court, built-in BBQ, pergolas, and a fruit orchard. A one-bedroom guest house and studio apartment above the two- garage offer flexible accommodations, all just minutes from beaches and the Santa Barbara Polo & Racquet Club.
