The Ultimate Lifestyle Ranch Estate!

The Ultimate Lifestyle Ranch Estate!  Valley living at its finest can be found at this remarkable estate set on 10± pristine acres in the Santa Ynez Valley.   Located down a quiet street and nestled between vineyards, this reimagined adobe-style home (4,450±sf) was built by Erling Pohls (one of the region’s noted builders) and renovated to the highest level of quality and craftsmanship.  Immaculate attention has been paid to every detail making this residence truly an entertainer’s dream.    Formal living and dining rooms are combined with casual and comfortable reading/tv areas that make this home relaxed yet utterly impressive.  Custom cabinetry, four fireplaces, contemporary finished oak wood floors, massive beamed ceilings, and expansive patio areas create a one of a kind home in a breathtaking setting.  The exquisite gourmet kitchen features marble countertops, top of the line chef-quality appliances, a breakfast area with views to the neighboring vineyard, walk-in pantry, sitting area with fireplace, 2,000+ bottle refrigerated wine room, and an outdoor semi-enclosed patio with built in fire pit/barbecue.  The Master Suite features a Kiva-style fireplace and French doors leading to yet another patio.  The stunning master bath area has two walk–in closets, an oversized shower, jet tub and extensive vanity with dual sinks.  There are two additional ensuite bedrooms, plus a powder room. Down the hall from the main living space is your very own theatre room with custom 2 level seating and its own separate entry and half bath. 

The attached 4 car garage is not only perfect for the car lover but it is complete with dual sinks, an extra dishwasher, extensive cabinets, and its own 3-ton split AC/Heat system.

The custom saltwater pool is surrounded by flagstone patios and mature olive trees and landscape.  Meander through stone paths and over dry creek beds which lead to the 2-stall barn with turnouts, a tack room, storage room, and a pasture.  Further down the walk, beyond the fruit orchard, is a stone fire pit with a semi-circle stone sitting wall which overlooks the pristine pond... an absolute perfect setting for an evening of entertaining.

Beyond the pond is the Second Residence which is a newer 3 bedroom, 2 bath modular home, perfect for family, guests, or a ranch manager.  It has been recently updated, including floors, bathrooms, and new washer/dryer.  Beautiful views of the pond and surrounding landscape can be enjoyed from here.

At the rear of the estate sits a 5,000 sf +/- completely finished Car Garage/Shop with four 12 x 12 roll up doors.  Two offices and a half bath complete the immaculate space.  This is an absolute car enthusiasts dream!

Two water sources including a private water well and a water meter from the local water district.  Natural gas is at the main home; propane serves the 2^nd residence.
