Ralph Lauren Style

Rustic, original cowboy bunkhouse located on the edge of the Santa Ynez River. This unique home will take you back to the old days of California. Where it may not be for everyone, if you are looking for a good example of what it might have been like to live like in Santa Ynez in the 1920’s, you have found the place. Decorated in a Ralph Lauren style, sit back in the leather chairs, in the all pine living room, or warm your feet by the fire and read your favorite book! If you prefer, visit one of the many world class vineyards a short distance away or dine at a variety of fine restaurants. If you are an outdoor person, lounge on the two wood-covered decks overlooking the river. The house has a new hot tub and outdoor shower (indoor too) for the braver among you. There are a lot of interesting books, a collection of original pen and ink drawings, and abstract western oil paintings. This house is perfect for a mature couple or couples with an appreciation of the truly different. The kind of place that inspires a longing to write that novel you have been thinking about.
