As you enter through the main gates and begin the nearly three-quarters of a mile journey to the main residence, the drive lets you know you are on your way to an incredibly special destination.

Meander past the barn and wave hello to Westerly’s three resident horses - Amber, Robinson, and Shiraz. Drive through rows of dreamy vineyards to get the feel of wine country. Gaze at the bass stocked lake and perhaps you’ll see the resident ducklings.

Enjoy the fragrant lavender, which thrives under the long progression of olive trees that escort you to the motor court, a subtle nod to the iconic introduction to the San Ysidro Ranch. By the time you’ve reached the residence, you’ve naturally embraced the pace and provenance of Westerly’s unapologetic allure.

Part of Westerly’s genius is the dexterity of her configuration around the home’s interior courtyard. Public and private spaces extend from this piazza, allowing the main residence to live primarily as a gracious home with three, incredibly sophisticated bedroom suites. From there, Westerly’s floor plan effortlessly extends to include an attached two-bedroom guest wing on the east of the residence as well as the attached apartment to the west. These fluid extensions offer supreme ability to flex in size and scale depending on the situation.

Once inside, Michael S. Smith’s craftsmanship comes to life as you pass through the iron doors into the interior courtyard. Here lies the heart of the home and functions as the piazza of the property. Dramatic 40-foot ceilings create a space that feels both timeless and timely. Three sets of arched doors lead out to the gardens, and upstairs, a matching trio opens to the balcony. Throughout the courtyard, old-world architectural details ground the space and showcase the incredible build quality of the residence.

Outside, the incredible gardens, courtesy of both Mark Rios and Arcadia Studios, offer an anthology of destinations and botanical delights. As the grounds unfold from the residence, you’ll find areas of prim and proper plantings as well as the wit and whimsy of wisteria draped pergolas. Rose and vegetable gardens, groves of olives and fruit trees, and vistas of rolling hillsides create an environment that evolves throughout the day and shines throughout the seasons. 

Spacious traditional kitchen and dining area with wood cabinetry, copper range hood, island, pendant lights, and round dining table with flowers

Marrying form and function, the kitchen with walk-in and butler’s pantries minds the countryside manner of the estate. Creamy tones pair beautifully with mixed metal surfaces, rich wooden cabinetry, and the patina of tile floors. With easy access to the kitchen garden and staff apartment, the kitchen easily transitions to back-of-the-house as needed.

The formal office and library are currently presenting as a billiards room (you know what they say about all work and no play…). Here, a 19th century Ver de Mer fireplace mantel, antique lighting and glass-front bookcases offer sporting touches to the room's origins. A coffered ceiling and matching glass-front bookcases read both clubby and handsome.

Mediterranean-style hotel courtyard with a turquoise swimming pool, red lounge chairs, umbrellas, manicured hedges, and tall cypress trees.

Like a boutique hotel on the shores of Lake Como, the pool is as still as a reflecting lake and as refreshing as a mid-morning mimosa. Bordering an alle of olives and overlooking the lake, the pool is awash in Westerly’s lush gardens. Spend the afternoon lounging poolside or better yet, an entire sun-kissed summer. 

Dramatic views of the surrounding ranches and foothills pair with an incredible movement of light to offer an organic, ombre experience to the 80-acre vineyards at Westerly. Well ordered rows undulate with the hillside and are a perfect companion for morning meditations and afternoon strolls. Aided by four private wells, Westerly’s infrastructure can easily support the existing - or an expanded - agriculture operation.

One of Westerly’s many defining features is the 2-acre lake nestled among a backdrop of mature trees, verdant lawns, and the surrounding vineyards. This storybook scene, complete with a dock offering a canoe, is both an aspiration and inspiration for living la bella vita in Santa Barbara’s famed wine country.

Though Westerly is comprised of a number of incredible attributes, at her core, Westerly’s appeal and beauty are far greater than the tally of her parts. This trophy estate offers the chance to create a lasting California legacy in the beauty of wine county. With easy access to private aviation, the best of the Santa Ynez Valley, just 40 minutes to or from Santa Barbara’s renowned beaches and Montecito’s creature comforts, and 2 hours from all the cultural amenities Los Angeles offers, Westerly is a true gem waiting for a new steward. Whether as a full time residence or seasonal retreat, a multi-generational home or a place to entertain guests and share your estate grown wine, Westerly is poised to host, handle or honor your biggest dreams.
