<\/a><\/p>\n A nearly 238-acre ranch in posh Montecito, the hilly enclave in the mountains above Santa Barbara, has hit the market with a price tag of $125 million.<\/p>\n Known as Rancho San Carlos, the property has a roughly 30,000-square-foot main house with 12 bedrooms and 10 full and three half bathrooms.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Its $125 million price tag makes it the most expensive ever to list in Montecito, confirms Suzanne Perkins, one of the listing agents.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n The estate has 10 cottages, equestrian facilities, a small office building and about 100 acres of citrus and avocado orchards.\u00a0With mountain and ocean views, the Monterey Colonial-style house is built around an interior courtyard.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n The house has an English-style pub downstairs, accessed by a hidden door\u2014not surprising for a house designed during Prohibition.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Below the pub is an underground badminton court with an observation gallery. The house also has a tower office accessible only from the master suite by an exterior staircase.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n The estate also features ample equestrian facilities, including two stables, a 10-stall round barn built in 1928, an 11-stall wood-and-stucco barn, and an 11,250-square-foot covered riding arena built in 1930.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n The Rancho San Carlos can be viewed on www.sothebyshomes.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Source:\u00a0PropGOluxury<\/a>\u00a0via\u00a0WSJ<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
