It is here where the anchor drops. A one-of-a-kind masterpiece designed and rebuilt by a father (engineer) and son (carpenter) over a period of four years. No detail was overlooked in crafting this remarkable gem. The Thomas Jefferson is berthed in the beautiful and sought after Santa Barbara Harbor. As the Municipal Code has imposed restrictions on similar structures, it emphasizes the inherent value, exclusivity, and rarity of this floating home. With the exquisitely framed views of the ocean and mountains, there's a profound connection to nature and the elements. Professional hand-crafted carpentry throughout; quartered and rift white oak floors and staircase, pops of burlwood, mahogany, brass, and wool, and marble countertops with two integrated sinks. Graylite II glazed windows, Viking and Fisher & Paykel appliances, large indoor shower with a white Tadelakt plaster finish with full skylight, and after paddleboarding, surfing, or sailing, take a hot outdoor shower. Interior roof deck access with views for miles. Between the tint on the glazing and numerous interior lighting options, it's easy to remain invisible indoors; keeping the inside in and the outside out.
