Location Details

Rancho Dos Pueblos / Dos Pueblos Beach

United States / Goleta, California
Location ID: #10160872

One of the MOST IMPORTANT oceanfront ranches along the spectacular Southern California coast. This is the area that Santa Barbara was 1st discovered and was a favorite site of the Chumash Indians. This historical 214 acre ranch estate includes the stately 5BD/7BA Casa Grande mansion built in the 1920's classic California Spanish style architecture. It is one of the few private beach locations in Southern California that has a road right to the sand, with power, running water, and large pond. Multiple buildings on the property include 9 guest & employee residences, barns and other support structures. Also there is a very unique abalone aquaculture operation located on the property with a permitted recirculating water pipeline to the Pacific Ocean. The coastal train goes through this property and has a huge trestle/bridge that is stunning with the ocean in the background. Dos Pueblos starts at the ocean and goes all the way up to the coastal mountains. All private land with plenty of paved space for crews and open landscapes with no signs of man.
