Designed by famed architect George Washington Smith in 1920, this classic Spanish Revival estate home, El Cielito, retains artistic architectural details while offering modern and thoughtful upgrades throughout. The home features six luxurious bedrooms, six full bathrooms, and two powder rooms.

The gated, three-acre estate is accessed through a hedge-lined driveway, which leads to a large motor court bordered by specimen palm trees, evergreens, and one of Santa Barbara’s largest and oldest Moreton Bay Fig trees. A grand entry leads to a formal den and conversation area with hand painted wood beams

and original wood burning fireplace. A formal dining room has multiple French doors leading to the gardens, making the room feel airy and bright. A bar and wine cellar room is tucked off the living room, offering floor-to-ceiling wine storage, a handsome wood bar, and bottle storage. A formal dining room with fireplace provides views of the outdoor lily ponds and sitting area, and access to a covered patio with original bricks, and Islamic and Portuguese tile accents.

GATED &EXQUISITE ESTATEon over three lush acres

The estate’s ivy-covered white walls, as well as its outdoor loggias, balconies, and central fountain are hallmarks of George Washington Smith’s Spanish vernacular architecture, and are the perfect backdrop in which to enjoy the sprawling lawns and grounds. The property boasts a picturesque rose garden,

outdoor fireplace, multiple sitting areas, succulent garden, romantic reflecting ponds, tennis courts and tennis pavilion, pool and pool house, two, 2-car garages, and a gracious, one-bedroom guest house.

This spectacular home is a private, one-of-a-kind jewel that offers refined, elegant living in close proximity to all Montecito has to offer.

In addition to its antique fixtures, Moorish woodcarvings, and beamed ceilings, the home retains much of the original dark wood floors and George Washington Smith Spanish tiles, including in the kitchen and butler’s pantry, which also have a mix of both original and replicated floor-to-ceiling cabinetry. The light cabinetry and luxury Calcutta marble

countertops bring a contemporary farmhouse style to the kitchen, which boasts two refrigerators and gourmet appliances. Former maid’s quarters, laundry area, and mudroom allow plenty of space for event staging, as the home is an entertainer’s paradise.

A new wing was thoughtfully added to the estate in 2008, complete with a family room and upstairs guest suite, which boast the same architectural details that are found throughout the home. Luxurious additional bedrooms are located upstairs, including the master bedroom, which features a sun-filled, attached office and two separate

bathrooms, closets, and dressing areas, as well as dual outdoor terraces and private pool access. The opulent interior, designed in collaboration with Joan Behnke, lends itself to gracious yet approachable living in one of Montecito’s most historic estates.
