This wonderful property from California is located right in the heart of Montecito, in an area known as the Golden Quadrangle. The classic French Regency state-of-the-art property is truly one of a kind – it went through a major restoration back in 2006 so you could also say this estate is pretty new.
Many of the first unique aspects have been maintained or restored to their original splendor, including the exquisite formal gardens designed and planted in 1934. The 10,000 square foot main residence combines all of the features of a regal lifestyle, with the simple and comfortable elegance that exemplifies the “Santa Barbara Life Style”.
Lutah Riggs Architect, partner and collaborator of George Washington Smith, designed the magnificent Les Chenes, which actually translates to “Oaks”, reminiscent of the golden era classic revival architecture. Lockwood de Forest land, famed landscape designer, took his regional knowledge and painted with magic his strong asymmetrical and theatrical designs.
