Property details

About 626 Sea Ranch Dr

Dramatic panoramas of the Pacific Ocean and Channel Islands take center stage in this beautifully rebuilt single-level home in Campanil Hill! Set atop 1 full acre facing the ocean and surrounded by lush landscaping and avocado & citrus orchards, the sanctuary-like property offers an alluring trifecta of privacy, location, and comfort. Capitalizing on the breathtaking views, the entire 2,503 sqft. residence was thoughtfully reimagined in 2016 by Litchfield Construction, highlighting its clean lines, abundant natural light, and distinctly modern spirit. Currently arranged with a primary bedroom and a large artist's studio, the home can readily be configured for 3 bedrooms, plus a separate office. Inside, the home embodies elegant simplicity and spacious accommodations. Soaring ceilings, dramatic post-and-beam architecture, and gallery-like proportions create a bright, open ambiance, while Fleetwood windows and sliding glass doors erase the boundary between the home's interiors and the inspiring ocean vistas that surround it. Wide hallways, minimalist finishes, clerestory windows, and beautiful wood flooring infuse nearly every space with light and warmth. The open-concept floor plan offers attractive flexibility, while ample separation between bedroom areas offer an ideal setup for dual living or hosting with ease. In addition to the expansive main living areas, the home's comfortable layout is completed by a serene study or office, a dedicated laundry room, and an attached 2-car garage. Outdoors, layers of lush plantings -- including avocados, lemons, agave, olives, and oaks -- enfold the home in a true sense of tranquility. Multiple patios, meandering pathways, and view-rich terraces provide the perfect setting for peaceful mornings, sunset dinners, or quiet reflection under the stars. A rare offering in one of Santa Barbara's most desirable enclaves, this sea-view sanctuary is both a home and a retreat -- where nature, architecture, and lifestyle come beautifully into balance. You'll feel worlds away, while just minutes from the heart of the Mesa and the best of Santa Barbara. With its seamless blend of natural beauty and contemporary design, this home captures the essence of graceful California coastal living.
