Valhalla - Your Own Private Estate w/ Pool Near the Rosewood Miramar Resort & Montecito

A mile from the ocean and tucked among neighboring estates, horse stables, and a polo field, Valhalla is situated behind a privately gated entry, down a long olive tree-lined driveway, on 3 flat acres of manicured grounds. The estate has an over one hundred-year-old history, first as a ranch and then becoming one of the esteemed estates of “El Montecito” in the 1920s. The main house is a Spanish Monterey Colonial built-in 1920 with expansive upper and lower decks and maintains the timeless elegance and refined simplicity of a bygone era when long meals were shared and refreshments on the veranda were a nightly ritual. Updated to provide modern comforts and amenities, this secluded retreat is a luxurious oasis with close access to all Santa Barbara has to offer. Steps from the driveway you can access the beautiful paths of the Montecito Trail system with postcard views around every corner or rent horses for a trail ride among the hills or along the beach. Local beaches provide options for everyone, from family-friendly to world-renowned surf breaks. Nearby, charming shops, restaurants, and cafes are a lovely way to spend an afternoon exploring. The estate provides both a sanctuary to relax and unwind with no need to leave the property or easy access to countless activities and excursions. Whether you're lounging by or swimming in the saltwater pool, reading a book in the upper balcony hammock with a view of the Channel Islands, playing cards or dominoes on the veranda, sipping morning coffee in the front porch rocking chairs, exploring the bougainvillea and citrus-lined trails, antique shopping in Summerland, dining in Montecito or visiting one of Santa Barbara's many beaches & attractions, this is an oasis to be enjoyed by all. -The Wanderlust Luxury Team- Property Highlights: 5 bedrooms/4.5 bathrooms 3 acres Private Gate Ocean & Mountain Views Formal Dining Room Breakfast Area Wet Bar Samsung Frame TVs Subzero Viking Range 2 Dishwashers 2 Washer/Dryers Heated Pool Ping Pong Weber Grill
