This magical Montecito home has it all – including a secret passageway leading to a wine cellar. The estate features lush gardens, a heated pool and spa, and pretty terraces perfect for early-evening cocktails. Cinephiles will love the home theatre, and everyone can enjoy dining in the dreamy vine-clad garden room. A series of guesthouses sit alongside the main house, making this a wonderful choice for a group of couples – there’s plenty of space. 1920s aristocratic opulence blends with contemporary style here, and the result is simply breathtaking.
