Camino Del Retiro: A Reimagined Spanish Masterpiece in Santa Barbara

Tucked into the heart of Santa Barbara, 1025 Camino Del Retiro has been completely transformed into a stunning Spanish-inspired estate, blending timeless charm with modern luxury. Under the skilled direction of Matic Design and Build, this full remodel turned a 1991 Spanish-style home—once frozen in a ‘90s aesthetic—into a masterpiece of design, craftsmanship, and elegance, all while preserving its architectural soul.

A Vision Brought to Life
Matic Design and Build managed every step of the process—from planning and design to construction—seamlessly blending traditional Spanish influences with modern upgrades. The home now features an open floor plan and vaulted ceilings, creating an airy, light-filled interior.

The reimagined outdoor patio is an entertainer’s dream, complete with a custom water fountain, an outdoor kitchen, and a built-in pergola, perfect for al fresco dining.

A Kitchen Designed to Impress
The centerpiece of the remodel is the ultimate chef’s kitchen, where functionality meets artistry:

• An oversized waterfall quartz island, ideal for gatherings.
• Custom two-tone cabinetry for warmth and contrast.
• High-end appliances, including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, a 60″ Wolf range, and a Miele built-in microwave.
• A 138-bottle climate-controlled wine cellar, perfect for collectors.
• A spacious walk-in pantry for convenience.

Living Spaces That Invite and Inspire
The formal living room has been redefined with a custom built-in entertainment center, a cozy fireplace, and large bi-folding doors leading directly to the sandstone courtyard. Here, you’ll find the outdoor kitchen, water feature, and mature landscaping—a seamless extension of the indoor space.
The open-concept design allows the kitchen, dining room, and family room to flow together effortlessly, framed by extensive bi-folding doors for indoor-outdoor living.

A Primary Suite Built for Serenity
The luxurious primary bedroom offers a true sanctuary, boasting:

• Vaulted ceilings and French doors that open to a private sandstone patio, surrounded by lush landscaping.

• A spa-like bathroom with a stand-alone tub, spacious shower, and dual vanity—a true retreat for relaxation.

Technology Meets Comfort
