Overview

Description

It doesn't get any more quintessentially Montecito than this! Spanish Colonial Revival architecture, courtesy of architect Mary Craig, is ripe with wrought iron, smooth white stucco, Santa Barbara stone walls, weathered tile, beautifully carved doors, and 1930's glamour. The ocean view estate known as La Macarena presides over 1.99 acres in the heart of the Golden Quadrangle and embodies a worn elegance earned over nearly a century of seasons. Designed around a central courtyard with eight sets of French doors leading to nearly every room, the home orbits around this integral space. Available to the market for the first time in 50 years, this piece of history is the perfect canvas to create your version of the California Dream.
