The picturesque landscape of Santa Ynez is home to a luxurious gem known as Westerly Estate, now available for $64.5 million. Owned by Jack and Julie McGinley, who have made significant investments in its development and enhancement since purchasing it in 2006, this stunning property spans over 200 acres and boasts sweeping views of the vineyards and rolling hills that characterize California’s renowned wine country.
An Enchanting Arrival
The journey to Westerly Estate is as impressive as the estate itself. Visitors are greeted by an expansive entrance that features a nearly three-quarters of a mile drive through idyllic grounds. This scenic route leads past a charming barn, home to three resident horses—Amber, Robinson, and Shiraz—offering a warm welcome to those arriving at this distinguished estate. The drive meanders through lush vineyards, hinting at the wine country lifestyle that awaits.
As you approach the main residence, you can take in the beauty of a bass-stocked lake, often frequented by adorable ducklings. The fragrant aroma of lavender wafts through the air, nourished by the shade of olive trees lining the pathway. This serene environment allows visitors to embrace the slower pace of life that the Santa Ynez Valley is famous for.
