A renowned historical Carpinteria horse ranch sited in a celebrity-studded enclave, Rancho Carinoso is a world-class, legacy property offering boasting an incredible 4.2 acres of oceanfront beauty. This is the last large beach estate on the Southern California coast and sits directly on famous surf break Loon Point, beckoning extraordinary living amidst the sand, sea and sun. A long driveway leads to a motor court surrounded by mature trees, new landscaping and greenery. Inside, the three-bedroom, four-bathroom home spans a single, thoughtfully designed level. A 1000-square-foot detached garage adds ease. This exquisite property is zoned for up to nine horses to be stabled on its grounds. A private trail leads directly to the horse-friendly beach. Enjoy the rare opportunity as the homeowner to ride your horse on the beach down to Santa Claus Lane at any hour of the day, a coveted privilege and treasure as all other riders on the beach must use the public trail under strict time constraints. Dock your yacht conveniently in front of the homesite and tender to shore to the private beach/backyard area. Residents have the ability to keep a hangar of water toys, such as small boats, kayaks etcetera on the beach portion of the property; launch a jet ski from your backyard. Ride small ATVs on the property and trails all the way to the private beach cabana an opportunity that no other home on Padaro Lane or in the area is privy to.

The property provides a drip irrigation system for turnkey landscaping. With multiple building sites on the property, the possibilities for streamlined building are endless. Two structures have already been built, and residents will have the creative opportunity to expand on the two existing structures or build anew.
