Behind tall wrought-iron gates on the coveted West Side of the Rancho Santa Fe Covenant, Villa Serena unfolds with the grace of an old-world Montecito estate and the ease of true California living. A hand-laid cobblestone drive, framed by mature trees and manicured grounds, sets the tone for this 3.68-acre all-usable retreat. Spanning approximately 9,052 square feet, the custom residence is rich in craftsmanship and architectural detail, with grand light-filled living spaces, walls of French doors, a mahogany-paneled office, media/game room, and a chef’s kitchen that opens to the family room and full-service entertaining bar. Five bedroom suites include two on the main level and three upstairs, anchored by a romantic primary retreat with dual balconies, separate luxurious baths, and dual dressing rooms. Timeless, private, and quietly glamorous, Villa Serena is a rare Covenant estate designed for gathering, entertaining, and living beautifully.
