About this home

Set against the rolling hills of Solvang, this remarkable five-acre country retreat captures the timeless beauty and relaxed sophistication of California ranch living. Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, the property is surrounded by mature oaks, towering palms, open pastures, and sweeping views, creating an exceptional sense of privacy while remaining just minutes from town. Spanning approximately 3,440 square feet on one level, the home offers four private bedroom suites, each with its own bathroom, walk-in closet with newly installed organizers, and access to the deck. Large windows frame the surrounding landscape, while a fireplace brings warmth to the main gathering room. Formal dinning located off the open concept kitchen. An inviting chef's kitchen, separate powder room, and dedicated laundry room round out the home's comfortable living spaces. Outdoor gathering areas extend the experience beyond the house. A outdoor structure and detached two-car garage, both with new concrete foundations, provide additional space for storage and everyday pursuits. Another detached building presents possibilities for a studio, workspace, or future guest accommodations, subject to applicable permits and approvals. A private well and new septic system add practical value. From gardening and outdoor dining to enjoying the open pasture and seasonal creek, the property offers a distinctive connection to its surroundings. Located within the Ballard School District and convenient to Solvang and Los Olivos, 970 College Canyon brings together the comfort of an established home, meaningful improvements, and the freedom of an acreage setting close to town.
