Awash with rustic charm and timeless elegance, this romantic Tuscan villa is prized as one of Mission Canyon’s hidden treasures for its breathtaking ocean views and architectural grandeur reminiscent of an Italian grotto. Unique, magical and supremely inviting, this 3 bedroom, 3.5 bath home was meticulously constructed in 2005 by a local contractor. The builder demonstrated remarkable attention to detail and employed the finest elements of the earth to create a home where Old World craftsmanship meets modern-day functionality. The woodwork alone is enough to make even the most discerning buyer swoon, from Cedar doors and windows to a vaulted Douglas Fir ceiling and handcrafted vanities throughout the home.

Supplements: Add to that a hand-cut stone entry and wide-plank Pine hardwoods; custom wrought-iron handrail, sconces and chandeliers; intricate travertine tile work in every bathoom; and a massive stone fireplace. These are among the home's abundance of artisan effects that deliver richness of character while reflecting the utmost quality and excellence of craft. The home lives comfortably, thanks to a circular floor plan, exterior access from nearly every room, and strategic separation of the entry-level master suite from the guest quarters and family room downstairs. A balcony spans the length of the house and complements the sun-drenched backyard and brick patio below. Innately one of a kind, yet perfectly in tune with neighboring luxury homes, this young estate has the birthright to become a lasting piece of Santa Barbara's history.
