HOT PROPERTY
Last week’s sales: Eucalyptus Hill contemporary for $14.5 million; 1962 Arcady three-bedroom; four Gobernador Canyon parcels; 1953 Hope Ranch off-market; condo near Santa Barbara High School for $2.5 million; and more. See what sold—and for how much.

BURNING QUESTIONS
“I was on a trail run with some friends behind Summerland. We were on Hunt Drive and when you look across where the Ortega Reservoir is, there’s a house up on the hill that seems very old. From a distance, it looks like it may have a clock tower. Would you have any information about this building? Maybe it was a school or a commercial building back in the day?” —B.
