One of Montecito’s most revered estates, Los Sueños is a grand Spanish Colonial Revival home by renowned architect George Washington Smith. Beyond the regally gated entrance, a tree-lined driveway leads to a spacious motor court surrounding a classic three-tier fountain. From here, it is obvious that this historic estate—on 3.36 stunningly landscaped acres—is among California’s finest. And it’s now being offered at the new price of $24,995,000.
Off the inviting foyer, a wood-paneled study awaits, as does the gorgeous formal dining room—a special place for sizable dinner parties or intimate repasts, it has a traditional checkerboard marble floor and Nero Marquina black marble mantlepiece. Throughout the main residence there are beautiful marble and hardwood floors, custom chandeliers and sconces, and designer fixtures, expertly melding Old World charm with New World comforts.
From the dining room, a full-service butler’s pantry connects to the large, stylish kitchen, designed to please the most discerning private or catering chef with high-end appliances and a center island integrated with practicality and period ambiance.
The living room is warm and welcoming, with wood paneling, a lovely fireplace, and a pair of exquisite chandeliers. Three sets of French doors open to a balcony overlooking an expanse of lawn, embraced by stately trees and bisected by a walking path to a fountain and koi pond.
Tucked away at the end of the long gallery, the primary suite rivals the world’s most exceptional hotels, with a fireplace, comfortable sitting alcove, French doors to balconies overlooking the gardens, and dual luxurious baths and walk-in closets. Each of the six guest suites within the residence offers its own set of amenities: a sitting room, an office/study, French doors to the gardens, or exclusive access from the kitchen.
The four-story Tower Guest House, meanwhile, is unique among Montecito estates, and perhaps all of California. You enter into a sitting room and then ascend, via spiral staircase, to the kitchen and bath on the way to the cozy bedroom with views over the treetops.
The grounds at Los Sueños are timeless in design and meticulously maintained. The estate includes a glamorous pool; a tennis court; formal and casual gardens; rose gardens; an orchard; and covered parking for four vehicles, with room for many more in the spacious motor court.
Overall, this gracious estate is a showcase of sophistication and refinement—quite cloistered, yet convenient to all the shopping, services, schools, and recreational opportunities Montecito has to offer.
2925 Sycamore Canyon Road is offered at $24,995,000. To schedule a visit, contact Cristal Clarke of Berkshire Hathaway at 805-886-9378 or [email protected].
