A rare midcentury modern gem located in the heart of Montecito, The Erving House, dubbed a ''glass tent'' by Time in 1951, is a 2.7-acre architectural masterpiece. Designed by Lutah Maria Riggs with landscapes by Thomas Church, it exemplifies indoor-outdoor California living. The dramatic main living space, with walls of glass, opens to soaring mountain vistas, views of impeccable gardens, and a biomorphic stone fireplace. The serene primary suite includes dual dressing rooms and a spa-like bath. A chef's kitchen with Poggenpohl cabinetry connects to formal dining with garden views. The detached studio and creekside guesthouse offer privacy and flexibility. The grounds feature orchards, lavender fields, Oak and Redwood groves and a bocce court, melding beauty, function, and sustainability
