Luxury Coastal Masterpiece in Santa Barbara
Villa della Costa stands as a true luxury coastal masterpiece overlooking Santa Barbara’s Gaviota Coast. Surrounded by untouched seaside landscape, the estate captures breathtaking 360-degree views of the Pacific Ocean, Channel Islands, and pastoral mountainsides. Designed in collaboration with J.M. Sewall & Associates and Mark Weaver & Associates, and built by Kitchell, the property embodies early California style while integrating modern technology, convenience, and comfort.
Completed in 2014, this sprawling single-level residence was thoughtfully planned to reflect both privacy and scale. Expansive interiors, custom walnut flooring, antiqued ceiling beams, and steel windows bring depth and warmth to the design.
Adaptive Design Group provided the architectural lighting design, enhancing each detail with carefully layered illumination. From ambient coastal glow to precision task lighting, their work ensures the estate feels as seamless at dusk as it does in daylight. Through expertise in lighting design consulting, dimming control, and integration systems, the home balances atmosphere, function, and natural beauty.
Combined with antique roof tiles imported from Spain and Portugal, a wine cellar, and abundant water supply, Villa della Costa is more than a home—it is a private retreat crafted with precision and artistry.
