‘House of the Hummingbird’ listing ‘stands in a class of its own’ in California. See it
A Spanish-style home with a heavenly rich name has landed on the real estate market in one of the most beautiful coastal cities in California — Santa Barbara. It’s called Casa Colibri and it’s listed for $12.995 million.
“Inside the coveted coastal enclave of Hope Ranch lies this stunningly renovated Spanish-style estate — a sanctuary of understated luxury inspired by the architectural undertones of George Washington Smith,” the listing on Sotheby’s International Realty describes.
“While many homes lay claim to noteworthy distinctions, Casa Colibrí (‘House of the Hummingbird’) truly stands in a class of its own. Every inch of this estate has been thoughtfully, meticulously, painstakingly reconditioned to restore the home to its authentic roots. The magnificent result is a classically Spanish-style yet thoroughly modern estate, exuding a masterful combination of charm, comfort, architectural detail, and stylistic integrity.”
Built in 1965, the six-bedroom, seven-bathroom home sits on three acres of prime, coastal land, and the house itself is over 7,100-square feet. Palm trees and rolling green hills surround its glamorous, yet beautifully simplistic exterior, which feeds its otherworldly look.
The home has features galore that include, per the listing, the following:
Private guest quarters
Garage
Swimming pool
Spa
Tennis court
Horse stable
Chicken coop
Garden
Kids playground
Bocce court
Gazebo
Tiled flooring
Fireplaces
Large windows

Terraces
“Like the beautiful and often-elusive hummingbird, an opportunity of this caliber and quality is bound to fly away just as quickly as it appeared. Experience the luxury of beautiful precision at Casa Colibrí!” the listing says.
The listing is held by Dusty Baker and Sally Hanseth.
