***PROPERTY WILL BE RE-LISTED SHORTLY. PLEASE DO NOT CONTACT OWNERS, THEY ARE ON THE DO NOT CALL REGISTRY.*** A Life So Rare, It Can Only Be Lived Here. Welcome to The Muir Garden Estate—where history whispers through century-old trees, ocean breezes drift across sunlit verandas, and every moment feels touched by magic. This is more than a home; it is a world of its own. A private, botanical sanctuary overlooking the Pacific, curated by Kate Sessions herself, designed to nurture connection, celebration, creativity, reflection, and joy. Here, lifestyle isn’t imagined—it’s lived. Wake to the sound of birdsong drifting through 2.65 acres of gardens that feel lifted from Balboa Park. Wander down stone paths lined with rare, mature plantings—landscapes that took nearly a century to grow and that money simply cannot replicate. Ease into your morning on one of many ocean-view verandas, coffee in hand, watching the coastline glow as the sun rises over your private estate. Every viewpoint offers a different mood, a different chapter of your day. Host unforgettable gatherings—from sunset dinner parties in the grand formal dining room to intimate cocktails in the billiard lounge, movies in your private Hollywood theater, or friendly matches on your regulation tennis court. Live well, live beautifully. A resort-inspired saltwater pool invites long, warm afternoons. The koi pond adds serenity. The spa and redwood sauna offer a personal retreat. The gym, golf simulator, and game room bring activity, play, and wellness into daily life. 26 Reasons Why The Muir Garden Estate Is Unlike Anything Else on the Market Architectural Heritage 1) Designed by the esteemed Edgar Ulrich, this authentic Santa Barbara estate holds coveted Mills Act designation for historical significance. 2) Thoughtful Modernization Meticulously expanded and upgraded by the current owner in collaboration with Island Architects—preserving charm while enhancing livability. 3) Enchanting Grounds 2.65 acres of Balboa Park–inspired gardens, masterfully curated by Kate Sessions, the “Mother of Balboa Park.” 4) Panoramic Ocean Views Sweeping, uninterrupted vistas of the Pacific and California coastline. 5) Resort-Style Amenities Enjoy a private saltwater pool, spa, koi pond, and a luxurious cabana with full kitchen and bath. 6) Regulation Tennis Court Ideal for both competitive play and leisurely matches. 7) Chef’s Kitchen Equipped with top-tier appliances and designed for culinary excellence. 8) Formal Sitting Room An elegant space for refined entertaining or quiet reflection. 9) Music Room & Study Tailored for creativity, focus, and inspiration. 10) Billiard & Bar Lounge Entertain in style with classic games and cocktails. 11) Hollywood-Style Theater Your personal cinema with immersive surround sound and plush seating. 12) Game Room & Golf Simulator The ultimate indoor retreat, blending fun with sophistication. 13)Grand Dining Room Host unforgettable dinners in a dramatic, showstopping setting. 14) Luxurious Owner’s Suite A private sanctuary with dual spa-inspired bathrooms and generous walk-in closets. 15) Private Gym & Redwood Sauna Wellness and relaxation meet in your own fitness haven. 16) En-Suite Bedrooms Spacious guest rooms, each with their own beautifully appointed bathroom. 17) Charming Bunk Room Perfect for children’s adventures or sleepovers. 18) Expansive Family Room A warm, inviting space for everyday living and memory-making. 19) Multiple Verandas Take in ocean breezes and garden views from a variety of peaceful outdoor living areas. 20) Detached Guest Suites Two serene guest residences—one with 2 beds/1 bath, the other with 1 bed/1 bath—ideal for visitors or multigenerational living. 21) Irreplaceable Landscaping The mature, priceless gardens are a living work of art, planted by the legendary Kate Sessions herself. 22) Six-Car Garage Plenty of room for car enthusiasts, collectors, and guests. 23) Gated Compound Enhanced privacy and pea...
