With commanding views, timeless design, & extraordinary craftsmanship, this 4,702+/- sq.ft. Spanish Hacienda rests gracefully on two legal parcels (5.03+/- ac + 5.18+/- ac) totaling 10.21+/- acres in the heart of Wine Country. Just moments from the storybook towns of Los Olivos, Santa Ynez, & Solvang, the estate is embraced by enchanting gardens, the shade of majestic valley oaks & a serenity that feels worlds away.Designed by architect Donald Pedersen & brought to life by Andy Mixer in 1985, the Hacienda feels both powerful & romantic--an ode to old-world Mexico, entwined w/ the natural beauty of the Santa Ynez Valley. Grand carved wood doors, wrought iron imported from Mexico, & hand-laid Saltillo tile floors set a soulful tone, welcoming you into a home that unfolds w/ warmth & grace. At its heart, the vaulted Great Room glows w/ wood-beamed ceilings & a wood-burning fireplace, while the custom mahogany kitchen & bar create an intimate gathering place. From here, views stretch endlessly across the mountains, changing w/ the light & seasons, always breathtaking.Every detail whispers of romance: a wine room lined w/ handcrafted racks, a library bathed in sunlight w/ a window seat for daydreaming, even a 75-gallon tropical aquarium bringing a touch of life & wonder. Rising above, the tower room offers a sanctuary in the sky, w/ mesmerizing views over red-tiled rooftops & the valley beyond. The primary suite is its own haven, complete w/ vaulted ceilings, a private sitting room w/ fireplace, & a spa-like bath that feels like an escape. Three additional en-suite bedrooms & a flexible multipurpose room--w/ its own entrance, storage, & pool bath--invite endless possibilities for art, wellness, or creativity.Outdoors, the magic deepens. A newly renovated pool & hot tub shimmer under open skies, while a rose-draped pergola invites lingering afternoons. Expansive covered patios, accented w/ Saltillo tile & a tiered fountain, echo w/ the sound of laughter & evening gatherings. From the tower terrace, 360-degree vistas capture the San Rafael & Santa Ynez Mountains in all their splendor.The land itself feels like a love letter to the valley: a 3/4 ac vineyard of Tempranillo grapes, an orchard of 17 fruit & nut trees, & 16 ancient olive trees, all nourished by a private well. Gated & private, w/ motor court parking & thoughtful updates, this estate is more than a home-it is a sanctuary of beauty & soul, a rare chance to hold a piece of Santa Ynez Valley magic.
