Carpinteria

Behind gates and up a long private drive this home sits on a flat one acre parcel surrounded by majestic mountain views.  Serenity and privacy are palpable in this custom-built 4-bedroom, 2-bath home with a raised foundation with cathedral ceilings in the Living Room and Master bedroom.  The Living room fireplace has fossils embedded in the stones from a local quarry.  There is a detached oversize 2-car garage. The property has mature landscaping with specimen trees and several varieties of fruit trees including Cherimoyas.

Located in the Carpinteria foothills, Shepard Mesa is a unique enclave of homes with some of the best views in Santa Barbara County.  Close to local beaches, Shepard Mesa also has equestrian and hiking trails nearby.  The area is also home to some of California’s most famous market gardeners, which adds a special flavor to the lush surroundings.
