MAKE MYSELF AT HOME
ADDRESS: 3315 Los Pinos Drive STATUS: On the market PRICE: $2,395,000
Reinvented San Roque Farmhouse J ust like Cinderella, when a house undergoes a major renovation, it can sometimes be almost unrecognizable from its former self. Cinderella’s new clothes and makeover can give her a new image, but by the end of the fairy tale, we know that she’s the same underneath, and Prince Charming is smitten no matter what she’s wearing. The home at 3315 Los Pinos Drive has been meticulously renovated and updated, but its traditional charm still glows underneath. When I went to visit last week, I was captivated by the setting and its lovely corner lot, and by the view from the front porch before I even stepped foot into the remodeled interior. The house is surrounded by a brand-new white fence inset with double gates that swivel effortlessly, providing the first clue that there’s more to this understated home than its 1940s pedigree would suggest. Pathways lead from two entrances across the broad front lawn up to the porch, where a sweeping view of the mature trees throughout the neighborhood provides a comforting backdrop when gazing out from within. A striking Dutch door with glass-paned top opens into the center of the house, with the living room on the right and the dining room to the left, plus a peek into the kitchen beyond. The living room is light filled, with sunlight streaming through windows to highlight the wide-plank oak floors and a blue-gray stacked stone fireplace. The walls feature floor-to-ceiling board and batten, lending a country farmhouse air to an otherwise spare, elegant feel. The bright and open atmosphere continues through the dining room into the kitchen. Graced with the same oak floors, gleaming Caesarstone on both the counters and the hefty center island, custom cabinets, a farmhouse sink, and a blend of covered and open shelving, the cathedralbeamed kitchen is an inviting gathering space for friends and family. Brand-new appliances include a Wolfe range and Sub-Zero refrigerator. I had already deemed it the perfect kitchen, and then I discovered the glass pocket door leading to the walk-in pantry, which features a butcher’s block and enough space even to hide appliances such as the microwave.
Not to be outdone, the adjacent laundry room provides still more storage, state-of-the-art oversized washer and dryer, a utility sink, and folding shelf and workstation, with a window providing a view to ease the burden of chores. The kitchen flows into the family room, where a black slate fireplace makes for a cozy lounging space. Beamed ceilings and French doors that open onto a private back patio conspire to bring the outdoors in and draw attention to the alluring space outside. The backyard is surrounded by a tall redwood fence, making the exterior space feel like another private room. Dining on the limestone patio, games in the lower yard, or entertaining at the built-in concrete bar are sure to be highlights in this year-round gathering place. Inside, two of the bedrooms and a full bathroom lie on a central hallway, while a third bedroom nearby enjoys an en suite bath. Both of these bathrooms boast details such as subway tile, custom cabinetry, and luxury fixtures. All pale, however, in comparison with the master suite, which occupies the entire upper level. The bedroom has natural wood-beam cathedral ceilings, which seem to echo the scenery outside the large windows. Mountain and treetop views can be enjoyed from beside the fireplace or while stargazing in bed at night. Two closets feature custom built-in shelving, but it’s the master bathroom that steals the show. A deep white soaking tub at one end of the long room is surrounded by elegant marble tile, built-in open shelving, and plentiful windows. A skylight lets in even more natural light, and a separate shower and WC at the far end ensure plenty of space to share. With radiant heat as a luxurious bonus, this room is a fitting sanctuary for this private enclave. The transformation of this home was conducted by local firm AGS Builders, with Suzanne Sanford leading the design. I admitted to Suzanne that I couldn’t put my finger on just one genre to describe the feel of the house. When I told her I thought it had both a farmhouse feel and an elegant ambience, she laughed and said, “Good. That’s what
we were aiming for: country farmhouse meets beach cottage, with clean lines and gorgeous finishes throughout.” All-new windows and doors, plus energy-efficient three-zone HVAC, plumbing, electrical systems, and more, will provide this home’s new owners with the peace of mind that comes with a brand-new purchase. But the bones and character of the house will always enjoy the established setting of the neighborhood, the mature trees, and the surrounding area. Like Cinderella at the stroke of midnight, whether she has on one glass slipper or two, she’s the same person underneath, ready to live happily ever after, especially if she is lucky enough to do her chores in this kitchen and n laundry room.

1,900 acres First Time on the Market in 135 Years
T
o aptly describe Eagle Canyon Ranch is to deem it one of the most extraordinary, pristine pieces of land in all the United States. A stunning 1900-acre expanse overlooking the Pacific Ocean in Santa Barbara County, this privately-owned property has been cherished and preserved by the same family for generations, and is now on the market for the first time in over a century. The first parcel, purchased in 1884, has grown to include some of the most breathtaking landscapes one might ever hope to experience. This gentle ranch land includes 14 parcels of pristine, usable open space, featuring unobstructed ocean and mountain vistas. The land is primarily zoned AG-II-100 and MT-II-100, and only a fraction of the acreage remains under California Coastal Commission jurisdiction, leaving a future owner with a multitude of possibilities. Just west of Santa Barbara, the property’s rolling hills, panoramic coastline, beautiful trails, tree-bordered plains, and tranquil Eagle Canyon Creek provide an enchanting retreat, but remain in close proximity to a host of amenities. Located on the famous Gaviota Coast in Santa Barbara County, and bordering Farren Rd., the 101 Freeway, and Los Padres National Forest, this historical piece of land is less than a mile from the Ritz Carlton Bacara Resort and Sandpiper Golf Course. Eagle Canyon Ranch…the Jewel of the California Coast.

Board Chair Palmer Jackson Jr. and Carol Burnett (Legends Award recipient)
Meg and Dan Burnham (Legends Award recipients)
Granada Hosts Extraordinary Legends Gala
L
ast Friday, The Granada Theatre hosted its extraordinary Legends Gala, which honored Dan and Meg Burnham, Opera Santa Barbara, and Carol Burnett. The evening began with an extended reception in the Founders Room and the lobby areas, followed by dinner on a dimly lit and elegantly appointed stage. The stunning Alhambra backdrop of the Spanish countryside framed the rear of the space, and the tables were graced with gray linens under a silver luminescent overlay and Moroccan-style lanterns and votives. Master of Ceremonies Andrew Firestone welcomed guests from on high in the loge and recognized the many patrons present, who make possible the performances by eight resident companies and others at the theater. Adding to the fun factor of the evening was locating Andrew each time he appeared, introducing entertainment and speakers from a different spot each time, including a catwalk 30 feet above the stage. Firestone acknowledged past Legends recipients in attendance, which included Barry De Vorzon, Sarah and Roger Chrisman, Ann Towbes, Morrie Jurkowitz, Sara Miller McCune, Executive Director Kevin Marvin representing the Santa Barbara Symphony, and UCSB Chancellor Henry Yang and Executive Director Celesta Billeci representing UCSB Arts & Lectures. Santa Barbara luminaries permeated the venue. Under Nir Kabaretti’s direction, the Santa Barbara Symphony’s Brass Choir performed in the loge. From an opera box, appropriately enough, soprano Jana McIntyre did a magnificent rendition of “Queen of the Night,” while Santa Barbara Centre for Aerial Dance dancers did their wonders on the rear of the stage. State Street Ballet dancers Ahna Lipchik and Francois Llorente delighted guests with dancing Salsa Celebration between the tables. In introducing Dan and Meg Burnham, UCSB Chancellor Yang praised them for their leadership, vision, and generosity, which have had a profound impact on our community. Dan has served as UCSB trustee since 2005, as a member of the UCSB Arts & Lectures Council and as leader of its first endowment campaign, and on the boards of The Granada Theatre, CAMA, and the S.B. Symphony. Yang called Meg a “super-ambassador” for Arts & Lectures, who “inspires all with her warmth, enthusiasm, and big
heart.” He lauded the couple for hosting wonderful receptions at their residence, the Top of the G, above the theater. In introducing Opera Santa Barbara, Santa Barbara Foundation President and CEO Ron Gallo proclaimed that “they are keeping this great art form alive … with integrity, flair, imagination, and quality.” Accepting the award were Artistic and General Director Kostis Protopapas and Board President Joan Rutkowski. Protopapas admitted that when he learned last spring that they would receive the honor, he hoped that the company would still be Opera Santa Barbara Artistic and General Director Kostis Protopapas and S.B. Center in existence. Smaller organizations often for the Performing Arts (which operates the Granada) Chrisman Executive Director and have this fear, he noted, but also often pro- President Caren Rager. Opera S.B. was a Legends Award recipient. duce the most vibrant productions. In introducing Carol Burnett, renowned author Fannie Flagg commented on how Burnett is a brilliant singer, dancer, sketch artist, dramatic actress, and writer, but the one thing that makes her a legend all over the world is her likability. “Carol, everybody likes you. Carol is the person everyone in America wanted as their friend,” and this is the “greatest gift God gave you.” Flagg closed by reflecting on how many people in the world Burnett has made happy. In accepting the award, Burnett shared that one of the best decisions she and her husband Brian made was to move to Santa Barbara and be part of this Past S.B. Center for the Performing Arts board president Susan Miles community, and tonight, she related, “makes me Gulbransen and Opera S.B. Board President Joan Rutkowski (Opera S.B. was realize I was right. We have had such a wonderful a Legends Award recipient) time here and have such wonderful friends.” She ended on an even sweeter and a very fitting note, “I am companies — American Theatre Guild, CAMA, Music happy that we were here, and I am so glad that we had this Academy of the West, Opera Santa Barbara, Santa Barbara Choral Society, Santa Barbara Symphony, State Street Baltime together.” Conspicuously and pleasantly absent from the gala let, and UCSB Arts & Lectures — and partner venues the were auctions and paddle raises, yet through sponsorships, Lobero Theatre and the New Vic. ticket sales ($500 each), and a gentle but heartfelt appeal by Major donors are critically important for the Granada, Ed Birch to make a donation through cards on the table, which does not receive ongoing financial support from any government sources and covers only half its budget the event raised more than $350,000.

Resilience in Our Houses
B
etween 1955 and 1965, about 18 natural disasters occurred in the U.S. annually. This decade, starting in 2010, we are averaging about 110 nationally declared disasters a year — roughly two per week. In the past, building codes were developed from historical data, but now state and federal agencies are pushing communities to use predictive
climate models to more appropriately address what’s coming. Resilience is defined as “the intentional design of buildings, landscapes, communities, and regions in response to vulnerabilities to disasters and disruptions to normal life.” The local environment always plays a critical role in determining what makes a building resilient or not.

45 Successful Transactions since 2017
John Wooden, the late, great UCLA basketball coach, really knew what he was talking about when he said, “Don’t mistake activity for achievement.” Running around doing who knows what and being very busy doesn’t add up to accomplishment. You are the only one who can name your Big Rocks. You will still have to take care of life’s detritus, but at the end of the week, you’ll look back and know you’ve been productive. And that’s a great feeling — I guarantee it!
Sara Caputo transforms how individuals, teams, and small businesses navigate workflow and increase productivity. Her work has been featured in Working Women, Success, and Forbes, as well as other national and regional publications. She can be reached at sara@saracaputoconsulting.com.

(1) Make a list. On Sunday evening or Monday morning, write out your Big Rocks. When you look back on the week and say you did them, you will be proud of having done them. Be sure to include nonwork stuff. (2) Keep it short. Start with maybe four to six Big Rocks. As time goes on, you will get better at judging how many Big Rocks you can handle. No sense setting yourself up for failure right off the bat. Shoot for about one a day. (3) Place the Big Rocks. Write out preexisting appointments on your calendar. Arrange your Big Rocks around your schedule. Don’t shoehorn in the Big Rocks. Allow adequate time.
(4) Accommodate for unforeseen pebbles. Overbooking and tight schedules are a guaranteed way to get the Big Rocks bumped. Be realistic. Give yourself more space than you think necessary. (5) Do them early. Place your Big Rocks first thing in the morning. Scheduling them for later in the day rarely works out. Do them first, and then you’ve got the rest of the day for pebbles and sand.
