Additional Details:
A rare reminder of old Spanish residency in California. Built by Captain Jose De la Gurra, who served for many years as commandant of Santa Barbara. Distinguished people were entertained here and this household was famous for its hospitality. Descendants of the original owners, still reside in the east wing, and adjacent is a charming Spanish street of shops
