Covering 13,000 square feet on two and a half acres, this hilltop mansion blends the state-of-the-art amenities of modern homebuilding with a timeless design rooted in early 20th Century estate architecture. Mediterranean lines with lots of arched window glass welcome long views across the Santa Barbara Channel as Moroccan accents highlight interior spaces.
