Woodstock Ranch

Ridgeline Ranch
A Rare Green Property with Astounding Santa Ynez Mountain Views

Ridgeline Ranch is a rare 20 acre property adjacent to the 6,000 acre Sedgwick Reserve, which is preserved into perpetuity for its pristine beauty.  As such, the Ranch “experience” is one of thousands of acres with some of the most breathtaking views in the Santa Ynez Valley.  These include a panorama of the San Rafael mountain range, with the Valley’s beloved Grass and Figueroa mountains. Every window in the contemporary Pitched Roof Territorial style home and studio/workshop frames the natural beauty of California. And these views are positively transcendent.

Green: This property was designed to both enjoy and respect nature. The design and construction of the home and 550 sq ft workshop/ studio were completed in 2003, and qualified for one of the highest levels of Santa Barbara County’s green building program ( IBRP). Among the Ranch’s energy efficient features are:
Rastra®  (10 inch block) construction (home & studio)• Stamped concrete floors (home & studio)  • Zoned radiant heat • Natural metal roof (home & studio) • Dual paned, glazed wood windows and French sliders (home & studio) • Draught-tolerant landscaping.

The Home: Walking into this home, you know that it was consciously designed and crafted to experience its beautiful natural surroundings. From the solid, heavy front door, to the 10' plaster finished walls, the stamped concrete floors, the finest quality wood windows and large French sliding doors, the gourmet kitchen, the pitched tongue and groove  ceilings and the magnificent views from every room, you realize that no expense was spared. The great room has natural warmth which flows into the dining area and the gorgeous open gourmet kitchen with food bar. The master suite offers two walk-in closets, a bath with large shower and clawfoot tube and a French slider to an outdoor shower enclosed by glass block. The other two bedrooms are quite spacious, with one being very suitable for a home office/den/guest room.

The Studio/Workshop: This 550 Sq Ft. building has many of the fine construction elements of the home. It has a ¼ bath (commode) and is plumbed for a sink. It has a very tranquil feel and wonderful views.

Woodstock Ranch: The property is located in the highly desirable Woodstock Ranch, which offers extensive trails and abundant well water.

Horses, vineyard potential: This property has full perimeter fencing and a fenced pasture. It also has an old map road that winds down from the top of the property to a large useable area (with water) adjacent to the Sedgwick. There is ample space for horses and grapevines. Then again, you might just want to lay back and enjoy nature’s bounty and your incredible good fortune to call this amazing retreat your home.
