About this property

Expansive Oasis by Butterfly Beach with Hot Tub, Game Room and More!

Stunning Montecito Beach Estate - Famed Butterfly Beach is just around the corner! A rare find on esteemed Channel Drive in Montecito, this residence on one-third acre presents an opportunity to immerse in coastal living and relaxed style entirely with ocean and mountain views as the scenic backdrop.

Perched on lush grounds, the mood here is genuinely tranquil, with an unmatched location. Butterfly Beach, across from the Four-Season's Biltmore, is just around the corner, while nearby, world-renowned Coast Village Road invites guests to find pleasure and treasures while dining and shopping in style. With Rosewood Miramar Resort as a popular wedding and corporate meeting destination, this is the ideal home to house attendees just minutes away. Whether walking, biking, or driving, everything is within effortless reach.

It won't take long to settle in and realize the gifts of this well-maintained home. Serve up a game of ping-pong, billiards, chess, or darts in the spacious game room with television and fireplace, or tuck into the comfy sectional sofa for movies and streaming TV options in the living room overlooking the front lawn and rose gardens.

The chef in the group will enjoy cooking up tasty treats in the large, bright kitchen, where a central granite island and breakfast nook offer great hangout spots to linger over a rich cup of locally roasted coffee and fresh pastries from nearby Reneau's or Bree'osh bakeries. A built-in desk in the kitchen makes it easy to get some work done while remaining central to activities. In the dining room, a large farm table is flanked by two sets of French doors, one opening to a shady patio overlooking the front garden, the other offering access to a private outdoor dining patio.

With four bedrooms that include two suites, the home accommodates up to ten guests, making this a more-than-ideal residence for families to gather, business associates to strategize, and friend groups to play and have fun. On the main floor is a suite with a king-size bed, flat-screen TV, attached full bath, and an outside entrance to the enclosed back patio. At the top of the staircase is an open office space as the entry point to the sizable primary suite with a king-size bed, pretty mountain and ocean views from the balcony, a spacious walk-in dressing room, and a full bath. On this same level is a hall bathroom and two additional bedrooms, one with a queen-size bed and a balcony overlooking the gardens below, the other featuring two queen beds that make sharing a room more luxurious.

With Santa Barbara's year-round mild temperatures, the outdoor space offers a lovely patio with a built-in grill fireplace, a dining table with umbrellas, and comfortable chaise lounges, including a covered round chaise. Cool! Central to this lush oasis is the sizeable meandering koi pond, a soothing waterfall feature, and an in-ground spa tub.

With the expectation that guests will want to spend quality time at the beach, the three-car garage houses plenty of beach chairs, boogie boards, and more. Take a moment to read through the Welcome Book to peruse the wealth of inspiring ideas for planning outings in Santa Barbara and Montecito. Pencil in time to experience the charm of surrounding coastal towns like Summerland and Carpinteria, too. Beaches are all within an easy walk away!

Without hesitation, Channel House lives up to its well-documented reputation as an impeccable, premiere vacation home with a stellar track record of happy return guests. Whether for a few glorious days or a well-deserved extended stay, welcome home to paradise.

Best property we have stayed in!
This property was a wonderful stay! Kitchen was well stocked, TV’s, comfy furniture and beds, plenty of linens and towels. The lush landscape was beautiful and water features on the property were lovely. We enjoyed the hot tub as well. Our dog played on the front lawn and our car was safely garaged at night. Everything in the home worked properly and the management team could not be more accommodating and helpful. The WiFi was great and audio system throughout home was awesome as we love music. The location is so close to the ocean, offering great morning walks around the neighborhood. We would return to this property and stay again. Montecito is a great little town with shopping, restaurants and friendly people!

Family Vacation
There were 9 of us with plenty of room. The kitchen had everything we needed in the way of equipment and dishes. I received quick email responses to my questions from the realty company that handles the house. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the pool table. We ate all our dinners outside under the umbrella table. Downstairs bedroom’s bathroom was very small.

Good Stay at Channel House
Our overall impression is positive. Plenty of room for ten people. Kitchen is well equipped. Yard landscaping is beautiful. The following comments are not complaints, but suggestions to consider in order to make for a better stay. My wife and I chose to sleep in the downstairs bedroom. The two extra mattresses came in handy. One comment about upstairs: the swinging doors between the master bedroom and bathroom don't provide much privacy. The downstairs bedroom needs a dresser with drawers to handle a weeks worth of clothes. Toilet paper holder in bathroom needed tightening: I fixed it but should be checked. Sink didn't drain well until I pulled the stopper up with fingers. Should be checked. Put a comfy chair and the standing lamp from garage in the corner nook of bedroom. Not enough light to read using bedside lamps. Found decent ones that don't match in the garage. The shower floor is dangerously slippery, esp. for older folks. We thought the house had a water softener, but one of the service fellows said no. I asked him what the noisy water apparatus was on the outside wall. Fellow said he didn't know. At any rate, water would start gurgling through it at 6:15 a.m. Suggest adjusting timer. The gardeners started mowing and blowing before 9 a.m. on Friday morning. Suggest they do other chores and wait 'til 9 to start their engines. Bicycles in such disrepair they were un-rideable. But fixed promptly when requested. Respectfully, JfRi
