Joseph and Lucy Foster Sexton House
Joseph and Lucy Foster Sexton House, Renaissance Revival residence in Goleta, United States.
The Joseph and Lucy Foster Sexton House features elaborate architectural details, including decorative moldings and distinctive window designs across its two-story structure.
Built in 1880 by architect Peter J. Barber, the house endured the 1925 Santa Barbara earthquake, leading to structural modifications including removal of three porches.
The residence represents the success of Joseph Sexton, who established a thriving nursery business and introduced pampas grass plumes to national and European markets.
Located at 5490 Hollister Avenue, the first floor serves as an event space while the second floor functions as a corporate apartment rental.
The property incorporates four contributing structures, two objects, and a pentagonal pool within its 1.5-acre grounds.
