Montecito's prime gated oceanfront enclave, Fernald Point, offers the perfect location for this spectacular luxurious contemporary villa overlooking its gently curving sandy cove with unparalleled panoramic ocean and island views. Custom designed and completed in 1995 with exotic architectural influences from the Greek Isles, North Africa and the Mediterranean, the highest quality components, materials and finishes were applied in its construction. The entry level offers a spacious living room, formal dining room, large family room and expansive chef's kitchen, all with ocean views, office/library, two large bedroom suites, and dramatic entry hallway. Central to these rooms is an inner sun-filled courtyard with tiled fountain that brings the outdoors into the home. The master suite on the upper floor provides a magnificent ocean view bedroom and terrace, his and her baths and spacious walk-in closets, and a large office. A second upper floor bedroom suite provides guests with privacy and a penthouse view of the sea. The lower level consists of a family/media room with its own ocean view terrace, a bedroom and bath with separate entrance, and a large museum-quality storage area. The vast 3-level ocean terrace features a stunning L-shaped blue-tiled pool and spa, al fresco living room, dining room and barbeque, wood-burning fireplaces and a private gracious stair descent to the beach. Featured in a number of European design magazines, this is a RARE OPPORTUNITY to acquire one of the landmark estates of the California coast.
