Titanic and Avatar writer/director James Cameron has listed his longtime Gaviota ranch for $33 million. And much like his supersize films, this is no average home.
An estimated 102 acres make up the property, with a generous main estate home, guest house, two barns, equestrian facilities, ranch office, gardens, swimming pool and tennis court. Other features of this exceptional offering include a solar power system, wind generator, theater and a spacious gym.
Tranquility Base, as it’s known, features just five bedrooms and five baths in the main house, with the property located mere steps from Drake’s Beach and miles of the Hollister Ranch Shoreline Preserve. The ocean view great room makes an unforgettable first impression, along with vaulted ceilings and a robust stone fireplace.
The kitchen marries form and function, pairing custom lighting and cabinetry with a Wolf Range and Sub-Zero refrigerator. From the dining room, there are expansive panoramas of the ranch estate, including views of the plentiful vegetable garden and tennis court.
The 24,000 square foot equestrian barn includes nearby paddocks, a workshop and other maintenance facilities, along with 4 acres of flat, useable land adjacent to the barn. In addition to the large barn, there is a 4,795 square foot equestrian facility that is next to the Ranch offices with caretaker’s quarters, including four apartments that feature six bedrooms and six bathrooms.
Another big selling point to the listing is the south-facing Gaviota Coast, the last extended stretch of the Southern California coastline that remains relatively undeveloped.
Emily Kellenberger with Village Properties and Jeffrey Kruthers with Hollister Ranch Realty hold the listing.
