A Modern Masterpiece. Along a tranquil ridgeline in Hope Ranch, the land opens in three directions - the Santa Ynez Mountains to the north, the Pacific Ocean to the south, and natural Hope Ranch setting below. One roofline runs the length of the site. Below it, glass - the landscape held on every side. Designed by DesignARC and completed in 2023, the residence reinterprets midcentury modern principles in glass, stone, and steel - clean geometry, measured proportion, every line held to the same discipline. A U-shaped plan wraps a central courtyard and lap pool. Broad overhangs and clerestory glazing carry light deep into the interior.Corners disappear where the glass meets. In the great room, thirty feet of pocketing doors slide fully away, and the distinction between inside and out stops holding.Inside, the material palette is simple and consistent. Travertine runs from the courtyard walls to a full-height fireplace in the great room and again in the primary suite, laid in long horizontal courses that echo the roofline. White oak floors throughout. Venetian plaster and inset reveals set the rhythm. Clerestory windows carry a band of light above the room and hold the palm canopy in view.A gallery corridor runs the length of the plan, glass to the courtyard on one side, stone on the other, art along its length, ending in a wall of warm wood. It links the public rooms to the private wing and does the work of a gallery on the way. The kitchen opens to the great room beneath the same clerestory band. Elsewhere the house turns quieter and darker -- a den, a powder room -- proof that restraint isn't the only register available to it.Outside, a timber pergola on steel posts extends the roofline into a covered terrace, where a travertine fire table faces the tree line.The landscape, by Nicole Greer of CJM::LA, answers the architecture rather than decorating it -- sculptural olives, sandstone boulders, native grasses, structure without ornament. In the courtyard, a mature Canary Island date palm stands free in the gravel. The lap pool and spa sit level with the terrace, side by side.Built by Leonard Unander Associates and styled by KB Kim of Langoworks - 1045 Via Tranquila is a Santa Barbara house in the older sense of the term: sited first, built second, and quiet throughout.Design Awards & HonorsFeatured on the cover of Luxe Interiors + Design (July 2025 edition)Honored for architectural design excellence by the American Institute of Architects (2024)Recognized for visionary landscaping design by the American Society of Landscape Architects (2025)

Nestled within a serene stretch of Hope Ranch, 4225 Mariposa Drive features meticulous craftsmanship and offers nearly three acres of flat, usable land. A level lawn rolls uninterrupted from the historic, remodeled residence to a tennis court, a pool, rose gardens and a citrus alle, grounds meant to be enjoyed as much as admired. As for the residence, designed in 1934 by celebrated Santa Barbara firm Edwards & Plunkett--architects of the famed Arlington Theatre--the property was commissioned by the family of a prominent Chicago banking scion, who gave the home its timeless moniker, ''Four Oaks,'' inspired by the prominent trees that still grace the property today.Since then, Four Oaks has continued to draw a cadre of legendary Santa Barbara figures, some of whom called it home, others simply captivated by it. Most notably, perhaps, culinary icon Julia Child chose Four Oaks as the location to film her 1980s television series, "Dinner at Julia's." Homeowners have included Fess Parker, the well-known vintner, who played the title character in the "Davy Crockett" and "Daniel Boone" series.Today, the residence is genuinely turnkey: a recent remodel thoughtfully updated the home for modern living without sacrificing the storied character. The six-bedroom, six-bath main residence centers on a large, sun-drenched living room with a covered patio and view of the sprawling grounds. Adjacent to the living room, a wood paneled library offers a space to work from home overlooking the sprawling, green grounds. Through a dining room and butler's pantry, a bright, open chef's kitchen-with double islands and a professional range-opens to a family room on one side and a trellised patio ready for outdoor dining on another. A separate wing includes four bedrooms, four full bathrooms and an exercise room, while upstairs, the primary suite earns its name with a sitting room, two large closets, a spacious bathroom and a covered deck looking out over the gardens, offering a private retreat. A detached guest house rounds out the accommodations at seven bedrooms and nearly 10,000 square feet.Residences where every acre is flat, sunlit, and usable almost never appear in Hope Ranch, and estates Julia Child chose to film a television series? That's exceptionally rare.

Built in 1924 by aviation pioneer Earle Ovington, Casa Loma is one of the earliest residences in the Samarkand Hills and an enduring expression of the neighborhood's origins. The estate brings together historical provenance, remarkable privacy, and a singular relationship to the landscape around it. Properties of this history and scale are seldom preserved with such integrity, making its arrival to market an exceptional offering. The house unfolds through a series of memorable moments: the arched entry beneath a mature tree, the original barrel-ceiling hallway, and rooms framed by black steel windows. The Santa Ynez Mountains appear throughout the home, their views still unobstructed because Ovington originally buried the neighborhood utilities for his private airstrip. A comprehensive renovation completed between 2020 and 2025 preserved the estate's soul while strengthening it for the future. Original hand-hewn beams, restored steel windows, 1920s stamped concrete floors, and old-growth redwood construction remain. These historic details are beautifully complemented by quarter-sawn oak flooring, custom steel French doors, rebuilt patios, and extensive structural, seismic, and systems improvements. The kitchen sits at the center of the estate, finished with custom cherry countertops, a Wolf range, Sub-Zero refrigeration, and a Thermador dishwasher. It opens naturally to the living and dining rooms, allowing each space to retain its own atmosphere while functioning together. The living room is anchored by an Eiklor gas fireplace and original beams, keeping the mountain views ever-present throughout. Outside, the property feels closer to a private park than a traditional backyard. Terraces, an expansive lawn, a sun-filled walled garden, a private oak grove, pool, spa, and pool house create distinct places to gather, dine, or simply listen to the fountain. A separate guest apartment adds flexibility for visitors, multigenerational living, or a future private wing. Positioned in the heart of Samarkand, the property enjoys close proximity to neighborhood cafs, restaurants, local markets, and everyday conveniences, all set among tree-lined streets that define one of Santa Barbara's most cherished residential neighborhoods. Casa Loma invites its next steward to carry forward the story of one of Santa Barbara's most distinguished original homes.

Set at the oceanfront edge of Hope Ranch, the residence known as Vera Villa holds one of the more uninterrupted coastal frontages in the area -- roughly 170 feet of shoreline across 2.5 acres, where the Pacific defines the property from first light through dusk. Whales pass offshore and dolphins move through the surf, and the water carries its shifting moods into the home throughout the day. A gated entry opens to grounds planted with an orchard of varied fruit, the approach unfolding past the trees toward the south-facing villa beyond. The residence comprises just over 4,700 square feet under roof, its orientation composed to draw the coastline inward and to live as much with the ocean as beside it.Once a gathering place where an earlier generation of Hollywood marked the close of the day, the home now holds a rare opening for its next chapter.The grounds are arranged for a life lived outdoors as much as in -- room for horses, a tennis court, a pool pavilion, or another vision entirely, each held within the same expansive frontage and southern exposure. Positioned along one of Hope Ranch's few true oceanfront parcels, Vera Villa is a rare opportunity to reimagine an estate at the edge of the continent.
