3110 Long Canyon Rd, Santa Ynez, CA 93460

Property Description

Escape the City! Come home to ''La Vista Farm.'' Exit scenic San Marcos Pass onto a bucolic rural road, turn into a private lane - winding almost 2 miles up a gentle valley toward the foothills of the Sierra Madre - and drive home past private vineyards and fields of lavender and olives, amidst wild turkeys, quail, and deer. Here, nature is the melody, and the spacious homes - often tucked out of sight on 10-20 acre parcels are the harmony. Enter ''La Vista Farm'' through either of 2 privacy gates and continue up the long, curving driveway lined with manicured oaks, pepper trees, redwoods and mature agaves, to the barn with its numerous horse stalls, tack room, 2 washing bays, and finished office. Integrated into the barn building is the 2 bedroom manager's cottage with fenced yard, patio, and covered parking. On both sides of the drive, and tastefully splashed across the property, are amazing custom stone-art installations, no two the same! Approaching the main house find an expansive and level, turf-covered open space for sports, playground, grand banquets, agility field, special events...or the perfect spot for your swimming pool. The grounds are filled with fascinating paths and trails which invite you to climb to ever higher views of the canyon, and they are peppered with arbors, landings, terraces, and garden "rooms" with unexpected touches everywhere, including creative pens and enclosures for small farm animals or pets.
