JUST LISTED: 2934 Torito Rd, Montecito
If Golden Age glamour ever needed a place to slip off its heels, pour a martini, and hide from the paparazzi… this was the spot.
Tucked behind towering sycamores and wrapped in 1.36 acres of Montecito enchantment, Jane Russell’s former compound has stepped back into the spotlight — and she absolutely left her mark.
Picture mid-century modern swagger with a Hollywood wink: a storybook creek, two flirtatious little bridges, a shimmering pool begging for a moonlit swim, and outdoor hangouts made for long lunches, tall tales, and a touch of mischief. Asking $8,250,000

3 Bed 2 Bath main house + ADU
$2,449,000

Incredible Mid-Century Modern compound situated on over half an acre in the coveted upper foothills of Altadena. Conceived as a private creative retreat, the property features two distinct architect-designed residences built for the original owner, noted sculptor David Green.The main residence, designed in 1964 by Randall Makinson, AIA (renowned for his work with the Gamble House), embodies the ideals of California modernism with sculpted ceilings, clerestory windows, and walls of glass opening to a fully-length deck that captures sweeping canyon vistas. The home offers 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, blending artistry and livability with seamless indoor-outdoor flow.The separate 1-bedroom 1-bath guest house, designed in 1949 by Frederick Monhoff, AIA, provides its own architectural pedigree and flexible use as a studio, office, or private retreat. Lush landscaping creates a sense of privacy and sanctuary.Both updated by interior designer Matthew Sullivan (AQQ Design).
Remarkably, the property was spared in the January 2025 Altadena fires—its thriving garden and thoughtful site planning offering a natural shield—making it one of the rare foothill estates to emerge intact.
