Description

Nestled into the private, gated community of Birnam Wood Golf Club is a classic contemporary home designed by James A. Morris. Mountain views are the backdrop from the spacious living room and back patio. Right over the private hedge, the golf course awaits.... This property is the perfect mix of relaxation and recreation reminiscent of a high-end retreat. The floor plan suits many needs—2 separate workspaces at either end of the home with outdoor access and entry options. Each zone of the house is complemented with its own private outdoor space in a very quiet neighborhood.

Supplements: The 71' foyer, living room and formal dining room all have travertine floors and floor-to-ceiling windows allow for plenty of natural light and fresh air to circulate throughout the home and invite the indoor and outdoor environments to meld together to enjoy Santa Barbara's often divine weather. The main bedroom has two spacious and separated en suite bathrooms in addition to two separate and generously sized closets plus a centrally located gas fireplace. Patio doors are located on each side of the spacious room. One set faces the majestic mountain views behind the privacy hedges. The other set of sliding doors leads to the tucked-away pool, separate spa and completely private courtyard surrounded by lush plantings and gorgeous artwork by local artist Emiliano Campobello. A spacious and separate 20x21 poolside room in travertine lends itself to office/exercise room, cabana or guest quarters (with half-bath).There are also two additional bedrooms in the home, both with en suite bathrooms with private outdoor access and patio space. There is a full bathroom in the main foyer that also accesses the next-door office/library. The office in the main house features floor-to-ceiling shelving on two sides and a custom foldout sofa/bed built into the shelving for overflowing guest use. The kitchen is located on the opposite side of the house from the master bedroom and includes a less formal dining/breakfast area as well as a laundry room. A two-car + golfcart garage includes a separate area for an additional fridge, two wine coolers plus plenty of additional space for storage. Attics available over garage and office/exercise room. Recent design updates to the front entry by architect Tom Jacobs/Ensberg Jacobs Design and Giffin & Crane Construction.
