Their vision established a timeless estate that has since evolved into a landmark on California's Central Coast.For more than three decades, the property has been home to Pacifica Graduate Institute under a Conditional Use Permit. The Institute expanded the grounds into a dynamic campus with five administrative buildings, organic orchards, water features, and tranquil gardens. This thoughtful stewardship has preserved the estate's natural beauty while enriching its cultural and educational legacy.Set on 12.22 acres, the estate retains the essence of its original 1,200-acre expanse. Its lush landscape, storied history, and prime location create a foundation of exceptional value. The property's existing infrastructure - multiple structures, vast grounds, and ample parking - offers flexibility for future uses, from continuing the academic tradtiions, creative endeavors to private residential living. For the discerning buyer, future possibilities abound. The estate could be reimagined as a private luxury compound with a primary residence, guest houses, vineyards, orchards, equestrian facilities, pools, and wellness amenities. Alternatively, its academic framework can be adapted "as-is" or thoughtfully reinterpreted. Whether restored to its original grandeur or envisioned through a modern lens, Pacifica Estate presents a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own a significant piece of California's coastal heritage.
Set on nearly 16 ocean-view acres and nestled in the peaceful foothills of Carpinteria, Villa Calafia is a rare 1930s estate designed by esteemed architect Gordon Kaufmann, AIA, best known for Greystone Mansion and the Los Angeles Times building.

The 4-bedroom main residence reflects Kaufmann's refined vision, with arched thresholds, balanced proportions, and a quiet Mediterranean elegance that speaks to his architectural pedigree. Framed by ocean views, the home is well-preserved, honoring its historic character. The estate includes: three two-story, independent guest residences, each with their own living room and kitchen: a One-bedroom Tower House with sweeping ocean views, a 1-bedroom Serenity House, and the Woods House with two bedrooms.
