On The Property

"Two distinct hands, one resolved house. The bones of a Don Nulty Mediterranean. The interiors, by Steve Hermann, every surface considered, every transition resolved."

The estate was originally drawn by Don Nulty, an architect whose Mediterranean estates set the visual language of contemporary Montecito. In 2018 it was reimagined by Steve Hermann, a designer celebrated for the precision of his interiors.

The result is a five-bedroom, six and a half bath residence over 6,416 square feet, sited on 1.3 walled acres of mature olive and orchard ground, with the Santa Ynez mountains rising directly behind the roofline.

Outdoors, a pool and multiple patios, including a covered portico with fireplace, create an ideal setting for effortless Montecito living. The bathrooms read like a designer's catalog: Kelly Wearstler with Ann Sacks mosaic marble, finished in Samuel Heath. Every surface considered. Every transition resolved.

The address sits in the foothills above the village. Five minutes to the village's coffee and bookstores. Ten to Butterfly Beach. Long, even light through the orchard from late morning until well after dinner.

What Makes It Singular

Five quiet things about the house.

01

Mountain Backdrop

The Santa Ynez range rises directly behind the roofline. Most Montecito estates sell ocean adjacency. 620 Stonehouse sells the foothills, with the mountains as the back fence.

02

Working Olive Grove

1.3 walled acres of mature olives and orchard fruit. The grove is not landscape decoration. It produces, season after season, with the residence sited inside it.

03

Don Nulty Bones

An architect whose Mediterranean estates set the visual language of contemporary Montecito. The massing, the proportions, and the stone work are his.

04

Steve Hermann Interiors

A 2018 reimagining by a designer celebrated for the precision of his interiors. Kelly Wearstler tile, Ann Sacks mosaic marble, Samuel Heath fittings throughout.

05

Pool, Portico, Long Light

A pool and multiple patios, including a covered portico with fireplace. The orchard light arrives late and stays late. The house is built for being outside as much as inside.

The Setting

Montecito, as it lives.

Stonehouse Lane sits in the foothills above the Montecito village, the kind of address that newcomers do not find on a map and longtime residents protect quietly.

Five minutes to the village's coffee and bookstores. Ten to Butterfly Beach and the Pacific. Fifteen to the Santa Barbara airport. The Riviera, the Cold Spring trailheads, and the Coral Casino sit within an arc that feels closer than it reads on paper.

Behind the property: the Santa Ynez foothills. Quiet, walled, working ground.
