$45 Million Montecito Mansion – See This House

March 4, 2016
  • Share

Montecito Mansion Pool Ocean View

Years ago, I went to Santa Barbara by myself for a job interview at a television station there. I was applying to be a t.v. news reporter. Even though, I was from Los Angeles, I had only been to Santa Barbara one or two times before. My interview was delayed so I ended up finding a coffee shop in a very nice part of town…a beautiful part of town and I thought to myself at the time…”I could definitely live here”. Well as it turns out, I was in Montecito. Montecito is the tony enclave of Santa Barbara with multimillion dollar homes and priceless ocean views. Oprah lives in Montecito now. Makes sense. Leave it to me to pick one of the nicest most upscale towns to pick as my future home. I still want to live in Montecito one day by the way. I called it paradise on earth at the time…and I still think the same.

Anyhooo…because a few of my Instagram followers have said they love million dollar homes (thanks again KK for speaking up, I have received other emails too), today I bring you a stunning Montecito mansion.

Listed by Suzanne Perkins of Sothebys, 815 Cima del Mundo is a classic romantic estate with sweeping ocean views.

Set on 10 acres, with approximately 12,000 square feet, this 6 bedrooms, 10 bath home was built back in 2008.  The home is a blend of Spanish Mediterranean styles with arched windows and doorways and a red Spanish tile roof.  Inside, the home is on the traditional side but feels fresh because of all of the gorgeous steel windows and stunning views.  Ok in all honesty…it is a little traditional for me…but not so much that I wouldn’t take it in a minute and live there happily ever after.  Wouldn’t you?  Take a tour!

    What a stunning view! Even if the interior is to traditional to me, I would love to live there. Such an amazing place…
    Montecito is now on my travel wish list for next year. Can´t await to catch the plane…

    I thought the same thing when I first visited Santa Barbara and Montecito was where I thought I wanted to be. So we rented a condo in Montecito while we looked for a home. It didn’t take long to realize we could only afford a rundown shoebox sized home. Santa Barbara encompasses a lot of real estate and we found a midcentury modern bungalow in Mission Canyon. Turns out I don’t miss living in Montecito after all!

Keep it simple. No need for bells and whistles an Keep it simple.  No need for bells and whistles and fancy things to make your house a home.  In this picture, a plant, two chairs I found at the flea market, a layered rug situation and some modern art...de-cluttered space can be equally as inviting as one filled with memories and treasures.  If you are stuck with how to decorate, I say keep it simple.  Purge and start with the basics.  Full disclosure, this is a shot of my living room from a few years ago when I first moved in...I didn’t even have drapes up when this was taken.  I have since added pieces and changed out furniture and added a 2nd sofa...but it started super simple and it was lovely back then.  When the world is swirling around us and making no sense, how are you keeping things simple at home?  #socococozy #bringstylehome #cococozy
Pre-pandemic throw back photo to where I was last Pre-pandemic throw back photo to where I was last year.  Clueless as to what was to come.  Was in Paris, with my mom, enjoying her summer apartment in the middle of the 6th arrondissement.  I had just left the U.K. visiting friends for a few days in London and the Cotswolds.  None of us knew that this summer 2020 would be so different.  Today, I can only hope this time of tumult and great divides leads somehow to a future of calm and harmony.  Going backwards in time is not an option.  Pushing forward is.  Happy Sunday to you.  Where were you last summer?  Where do you imagine you’ll be next? Xoxo #socococozy #bringstylehome
Incredible living room before and after as designe Incredible living room before and after as designed by my good friend Steve Jones @bettershelter!  I went on a tour today.  I also went on a tour a year ago when he first got the house.  See my stories. Swipe to see what this room looked like before.  Life lesson from a room transformation:  When faced with the daunting and not so pretty, look to do the work, and you can make changes to bring  out what is good.  Right?  This home by the way is going on the market soon and is in one of my favorite parts of town, View Park.  What changes have you made lately that have turned bad into good? #socococozy #bringstylehome #remodeling #homerenovation #californiadreaming
“Be patient with yourself it has been a funky fe “Be patient with yourself it has been a funky few months in the world.” My friend Manon texted this advice to me today.  She is right.  A little patience and a lot of kindness to yourself and to others during these unusual times will go a long way.
***
Am in my living room right now looking at these pretty flowers in that white urn I found lying around.  The urn works (see Flower Power highlights for backstory). Thinking on who I might send one of these bouquets to today as a little act of kindness.  Still working on the patience piece of her advice! 🤪 Who might you send flowers to?  How can you be more patient with yourself? Happy Saturday!

Hi! Finally something to smile about! 😂 Exciti Hi!  Finally something to smile about! 😂 Exciting flower news today as I debut the first ever COCOCOZY designed bouquet in my latest partnership! Tada.  Here is The Classic by COCOCOZY exclusively on @ftdflowers + @proflowers as part of their #herestoher initiative!  Swipe left to see it up close.  I wanted to design a super lush classically beautiful bouquet that would look good in any home during the fall/winter.  Roses, eucalyptus and so much more in soft whites and greens.  I am so happy with the final product.  What’s great is that this hand tied bouquet comes in a box straight to your door and you can put it in any vase.  If you swipe left you can see it in my breakfast room.  Perfect for sending as a birthday gift, celebration, expression of love or friendship, a business gift, a thank you to someone or I recommend ordering for yourself every couple of weeks to cheer up your space as we stay at home more!  I plan on getting them weekly!  Anyhoooo...I’m linking to the bouquet in my profile.  Have you ever ordered flowers for yourself just because?  Who might you send these to?  #socococozy #bringstylehome #cococozy
