For those in the market for a supreme residence with an uncanny resemblance to the French Riviera, look no further than the Villa Pelican. Tucked inside the charming California coastal town of Montecito, this Mediterranean-style home is  made up of twenty-two rooms–eight bedrooms, nine-and-a-half baths, a sun room, dining room, library, two powder rooms and a three-car garage.

This pristene mansion sits on .74 acres of private beachfront land and is surrounded by a guesthouse, a secluded area with a cabana that contains a fireplace, a bathroom and dressing room, and a BBQ. Unique, fish-shaped fountains decorate the backyard and the best view of the ocean comes from the master bedroom, where windows along the far wall offer stunning views of waves as far as the eye can see.

The Villa Pelican is conveniently located near shopping and restaurants, offers distant views of the Channel Islands, and sits directly in the shadows of the scenic Santa Ynez mountains.
