Description
Distinctive and stately, the palatial grounds at Rancho El Morro represent the very best of Santa Ynez Valley living. Sitting on a sprawling 200+/- acre parcel of picturesque California land, this wine country estate embodies old-world glamour boasting an 8,000+/- SF main residence, ranch manager's house, and storage barn. Set amongst rolling hills and ancient oak trees, this ranch truly has everything you need for a unique, private retreat on the Central Coast. Located at the end of a 2.5-mile private road with three secure gates, the property is exceedingly private while also being just minutes from Michelin star restaurants, world renown wine tasting, and the convenient shopping of Los Alamos and Los Olivos. This picturesque piece of land offers ideal opportunities for establishing a vineyard or a working ranch and includes Ag Preserve Tax status, 100-acre zoning, a ranch manager house, 1,400 sq ft storage barn, 3-car garage, wine storage area, and dedicated office space. The main house was thoughtfully designed and expertly built featuring a theme of repeated arches, intricate detailing, rich wood, and high cathedral ceilings. The star of the home is the opulent two-story library, complete with towering bookshelves, personal bar, and fireside sitting room. Panoramic pastoral views can be enjoyed from most every room and the sun-drenched patios have boundless views of the lush surroundings.
