A Piece of Europe, Perched Above the Pacific in Montecito

Located within the exclusive Pepper Hill enclave of Montecito, this exceptional estate is set on approximately 1.9 acres and enjoys sweeping ocean views stretching across the horizon and down the coastline. A broker’s open will be held today, October 14, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Distinguished by its stone exterior, slate rooflines, soaring ceilings, custom millwork, and European fireplaces, 1170 Glenview Road possesses the character and warmth of an authentic private European villa. Exquisite oak floors reclaimed from a monastery in France extend throughout the home, lending a sense of history and timelessness to each room.

Extensively remodeled, the single-level residence pairs gracious scale with an easy, understated elegance. The striking living room, generous dining room, and bright eat-in kitchen open to a broad covered terrace, creating a seamless connection between the interiors, beautifully terraced gardens, and extraordinary Pacific Ocean views.

The interiors have been thoughtfully restored using antique doors, fireplace mantels, marble sinks, French armoires, cabinetry, and other architectural elements sourced from galleries throughout Europe. Restored Murano sconces and chandeliers add another layer of refinement to the living and dining rooms, while hand-applied plaster walls and richly detailed finishes create a sense of quiet authenticity throughout.

The kitchen is anchored by a custom-built island topped with Italian marble and appointed with La Cornue ranges, Sub-Zero refrigeration, dual Miele dishwashers, custom cabinetry, and other top-tier appliances. Designed for those who genuinely enjoy cooking and entertaining, the adjoining breakfast and sitting room features custom iron and glass doors opening directly to the garden.

The spacious primary suite is a private retreat within the home, filled with natural light and sweeping ocean views. An adjoining study, private terrace overlooking the pool and ocean beyond, and spa-like bath create an exceptional sense of privacy and calm. The bath features a large soaking tub, dual vanities, and an expansive walk-in shower, while the extraordinary dressing room offers custom-built closets and a spiral staircase leading to additional wardrobe space.

Two additional en-suite bedrooms complete the main residence. A separate pool and guest house offers an additional bedroom and bath, providing a beautifully appointed retreat for guests.

The terraced grounds are designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living and entertaining, with a swimming pool, fountains, mature gardens, and inviting areas for gathering, dining, and relaxing against a backdrop of spectacular ocean views.

Rarely does one property combine the soul and character of a European villa, exceptional ocean views, and such a desirable Montecito setting. Ideally located within easy reach of both the Upper and Lower Villages, 1170 Glenview Road offers timeless architecture, remarkable craftsmanship, and an extraordinary sense of place.
