Situated on a 3.5 acre, oak-studded ridge atop Santa Barbara’s Riviera, the Greene Compound is a 6,500 square foot custom residence with guest house and pool capturing spectacular views of the City, Coastal Islands to the south, and La Cumbre peak to the north.

Carefully sited to kiss the tips of many existing large oaks, the home is rustic Mediterranean in style which blends integral color plaster walls with Santa Barbara sandstone and cedar board and batt.

Landscape Architect Lane Goodkind restored the native grass meadow and added a stream bio-swale which complements the rural setting.  20′ mahogany, pocketing sliding doors maximize  the indoor / outdoor Santa Barbara lifestyle by opening the living spaces to the pool and island view beyond.  A monumental exterior fireplace and camp-style margarita bar add to this romantic living. Discreetly buried in the mission tile roof, solar panels help to offset the home’s overall energy consumption. Truly an amazing and unique property, the Greene Residence blends in beautifully with the pastoral setting of the ridge while complementing and enhancing this Riviera neighborhood.
