“Although they have bought and sold many properties in the past, they always planned to live in those homes,” Mr. Riskin said. “However, this is the first property they have ever purchased with the intention of renovating and selling. They loved working on this home and are thrilled with how it turned out.”

The bucolic property situated on 1.3 acres offers two bedrooms and two bathrooms, one in each barn along with a rich, dark wood study. This masterpiece property has modern amenities while maintaining original old world charm. There is a breakfast room, full classic kitchen with hand painted professionally designed counter top tiles, powder room, laundry room, oversized three car garage, gardener's restroom, workshop, gym space and full basement that runs below the home.

This unique home boasts plank hardwood and brick floors, leaded glass windows, gourmet chef's kitchen, French doors throughout. The second floor of each barn presents open air bedroom suites, with lots of natural light and dual living rooms with magnificent fireplaces for chilly evening enjoyment. All of the charm of an English countryside, located in sunny Montecito.
