Enjoy this hilltop French Normandy Farmhouse designed and built by George Washington Smith in 1928. Located near Montecito with splendid ocean and island vistas. The house, garden and pool are made private by the surrounding olive trees.

All three double bedrooms are en suite. One of these bedrooms is at garden level with patio access.

There is a large gourmet kitchen next to the wood-paneled library/dining room; which can seat twelve at formal dinner. The large living room has a baby grand piano with french doors to the garden. All these rooms mentioned have working fireplaces. All have oak floors and all have ocean views. Above the kitchen, up a separate stair, are maid's quarters with bedroom, full bath/shower and sitting room.

Santa Barbara has approximately three hundred days of sunshine. There is no "off season" - winter highs average 65 degrees and summer 75 degrees. We need no air conditioning. The house is 5 minutes drive to the beach; 7 minutes drive to downtown Santa Barbara with its large range of restaurants; 6 minutes to the shops of Montecito village; 15 minutes to Santa Barbara Airport; 100 minutes to LAX and but 30 minutes to the wine country of the Santa Ynez Valley.
