Set behind a private gated entry on five pristine acres in the highly sought-after Regency Hills enclave, this exceptional estate represents a rare opportunity to lease a property of this caliber in the Santa Ynez Valley. Ideally positioned along the valley's main corridor between Los Olivos, Solvang, and Ballard, the home offers a unique combination of privacy, accessibility, and refined wine country living. Built by Mark Hemming, the residence reflects exceptional craftsmanship and architectural integrity, with a level of detail, scale, and material quality rarely found in the region. With a truly magical and romantic presence, the property carries a storybook quality throughout a home that feels both elevated and deeply grounded in its surroundings. Warm wood finishes, custom detailing, designer fixtures, and multiple fireplaces create a soft, inviting ambiance from morning through evening. The main residence features beautifully proportioned living spaces filled with natural light, a chef's kitchen with premium Sub-Zero and Viking appliances, and spaces designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. Marble finishes and clean white tile surfaces throughout contribute to a refined and cohesive aesthetic. The primary suite offers a luxurious and private retreat, complete with its own fireplace and spa-like setting, including his-and-her bathrooms that provide both comfort and privacy. An upstairs loft offers additional flexibility as a private office, guest retreat, or creative workspace, while also providing separate sleeping space for children or guests, ideal for extended stays or sleepovers. A detached guest house with its own private entrance adds further versatility for visitors, extended family, or work-from-home living. Additional flexible spaces on the property may be used for creative work, studio use, or storage. The grounds are a defining feature of the property, offering a landscape that feels both curated and effortlessly natural. Mature olive and oak trees, established rose gardens, and plantings of lavender and jasmine create a romantic and fragrant setting. A pond attracts local wildlife and enhances the peaceful, immersive experience of the land, while a treehouse and open spaces contribute to the unique lifestyle appeal. Outdoor living is equally compelling, with a welcoming porch designed for quiet mornings and sunset evenings, and a spa-like environment that encourages relaxation and connection. The full five acres are enclosed with an underground, animal-safe perimeter fencing system, preserving open views while offering a sense of security and ease. The home offers exceptional privacy and superior views compared to many surrounding properties, creating a rare sense of space and retreat. Properties offering this combination of privacy, views, and accessibility are increasingly difficult to find. Unlike many more remote properties in the valley, the home offers reliable access to Instacart, DoorDash, and other delivery services, allowing for everyday convenience without compromising privacy. Ideally located within minutes of Los Olivos, Ballard, and the charming town of Solvang, the property is also within close proximity to L'Auberge, Alisal Ranch, local Pilates studios, scenic bike paths, and the region's renowned wineries and luxury restaurants. It is within walking distance to New Frontiers Natural Marketplace, Leonardo's Cafe, nearby parks, and seasonal farm stands, and is conveniently located near local medical services and the hospital. Situated within the highly regarded Ballard School District and Santa Ynez High School, both California Distinguished Schools, the property offers exceptional educational access alongside its lifestyle appeal. With easy access to Santa Barbara and less than two hours to Los Angeles without traffic, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy true wine country living with both privacy and connection. High-speed internet supports modern living and remote work, while the overall design and setting create a home that is both functional and deeply inviting.
