Tucked privately above the San Roque neighborhood, this 1.69-acre hillside gated sanctuary invites a slower, unhurried way of living. Reimagined down to the framing by a boutique Santa Barbara design firm, the property is a study in stillness with authentic Japanese Shou Sugi Ban burnt-wood siding, an elegant nod to restraint set among California oaks. The contemporary hillside residence offers seclusion just minutes from local beaches, dining, and State Street.
Behind a striking glass pivot entry, the main space is anchored by soaring plaster walls, white oak floors, and a sculptural fireplace. The layout is designed for serene, intentional living, where every bedroom enjoys its own transition to a wraparound floating deck framing mountain views with a glimpse of the Pacific.
At the heart of the home, custom oak cabinetry and sleek quartzite countertops create a tailored culinary space. High-end, fully integrated Fisher & Paykel appliances blend beautifully into the custom woodwork, maintaining clean lines and a focus on natural materials.
Designed for effortless entertaining, the expansive grounds offer resort living with total privacy. A pristine pool deck connects to a custom, built-in outdoor kitchen, a cedar hot tub, and multiple outdoor seating areas. The gated estate features automated intercom gates, a two-car garage, and mature groves of avocado, olive, apricot, jacaranda, and citrus trees.
Beneath the design is a home engineered for health and wellness. The interiors feature smooth veneer plaster walls with integrated color, leaving them completely unpainted for pristine indoor air quality. Hidden within the structure is advanced EMF-shielding foil, while a whole-house water filtration and softening system works alongside a maintenance-free UVC-LED disinfection system integrated into the two-zone smart HVAC to ensure a purified living environment.
Three bedrooms, two baths, 1,667 square feet of quiet architecture. Two minutes to the Jesusita trailhead, five minutes to downtown, and a world away from everywhere else.
1590 San Roque Road is offered at $4,295,000. If you would like to schedule a private tour, please reach out to Terence Alemann of Alemann & Associates at (805) 637-3378.
