Hope
Ranch, California
Hope Ranch is
one of the most desirable neighborhoods in
Santa Barbara.
Hope Ranch was once part of an original coastal Spanish Land Grant. In the 1920’s and 1930’s it was developed into what is now approximately 1,863 acres with about 773 estate like homes nestled into a rural setting minutes from
downtown Santa Barbara. With lots no smaller than 1 acre and up to multiple acreages,
Hope Ranch has some of the most luxurious properties
offering both spectacular ocean-front estates
and exquisite equestrian estates.
The residents enjoy a private and gated beach, tennis courts and miles of beautiful equestrian trails. The private, members only, La Cumbre Country Club offers all residents views of the beautiful
Laguna Blanca Lake and greens of the golf course.
Located about 90 miles north of Los Angeles, along the coast. Geographically Santa Barbara nestles into a curved coastline which faces south ~ not west ~ and to its back, a line of dramatic coastal mountains. Off the coast, are a group of five islands which serve to buffer harsh seas and weather.
Our year round weather is due in part to this very unique geography of islands, south facing beaches and a coastal range of mountains to the north.
