“‘Selling Sunset’ Star Amanda Lynn Lists $70M Oceanfront Ranch Adjacent to Kevin Costner’s Estate (Exclusive)”
A prime Southern California property with its own private beach—once listed for an eye-watering $109 million and located just steps from celebrities like Kevin Costner and Ellen DeGeneres—has now reappeared on the market for a more approachable $69.995 million, Us Weekly has learned.
The property, known as Rancho Cariñoso, is currently listed by Amanda Lynn from Nest Seekers International. Nestled in the exclusive, star-studded enclave of Carpinteria, California, along the prestigious Padaro Lane, this 4.21-acre beachfront estate was previously owned by Arthur A. Cameron III, the grandson of renowned Beverly Hills oil magnate Arthur A. Cameron and 1940s film star Kay Aldridge. Once ranked among the top 20 most expensive homes globally, it stands as one of the last oceanfront horse ranch estates on the coast, boasting unique private beach access.
Cameron, a passionate polo player, constructed the 2,500-square-foot residence in 2014. The single-story home features three bedrooms, four bathrooms, and a 1,000-square-foot detached garage, all designed to maximize the stunning views of Loon Point surf break. The estate, which can accommodate up to nine horses, includes private horse trails leading directly to the beach, unrestricted riding access, and potential for expansion up to 10,000 square feet.
Set amidst a constellation of celebrity neighbors, Rancho Cariñoso is close to Costner, who previously listed his property (without private beach access) for $60 million, and DeGeneres, who recently sold her luxury estate (also without private beach access) for a staggering $96 million after acquiring it two years ago for $70 million. Other nearby celebrities include Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis, as well as Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker.
“This isn’t just a home; it’s a sanctuary,” Lynn tells Us. “With 1.1 acres of private beach and pristine horse trails, it’s designed for those who wish to connect with nature in the utmost luxury. Where else can you ride a horse at sunrise and surf at sunset, all on your own 4.2-acre property? This estate on Padaro Lane is a rare gem offering unparalleled freedom and privacy.”
Dylan Eckardt, a star of Selling the Hamptons and a marketing strategist for Nest Seekers International, adds, “This property is a legendary legacy estate within the star-studded Carpinteria enclave, featuring breathtaking ocean vistas and secluded coastal nooks. It embodies a level of privacy and luxury that is nearly impossible to replicate.”
