Estate built to ‘blend in with its surroundings’ lists in California. Can you spot it?
A unique estate has landed on the real estate market in beautiful Goleta, California, for $4.59 million.
“Ricon Ranch is a thoughtful collaboration between homeowner/builder and Dave Mendro, principal of Neumann Mendro Andrulaitis Architects,” the listing on Sotheby’s International Realty says. “It was designed to withstand the elements of its environment, blend in with its surroundings, and provide the warmth and comfort of a modern-day home.”
The two-bedroom, two-bathroom home on 102 acres was actually designed with the popular Post Ranch Inn in Big Sur serving as its inspiration.
The interior of the home is 797 square feet with a 629-square-foot one-bedroom, one-bathroom loft in the detached garage.
“Each and every aspect of this incredible compound has been meticulously calculated to achieve the goals of its owners,” the listing says. “Now it is time for a brilliant buyer to take advantage of all the hard work that has been placed into this project and truly enjoy the remarkable lifestyle offered by the Hollister Ranch.”
The listing is held by Nate Alker and Greg Alker.
Goleta is about 10 miles west of Santa Barbara.
