Unless you are a 'Scarface' purist, you would never know that the over-the-top mansion used in the movie is located in Montecito, CA and not in Miami, FL where the movie was filmed! And once you see the photos below, you will quickly realize that the larger-than-life interior used in the movie was clearly a set and nowhere true to scale of the actual residence.

OK, now that we've gotten that out of the way, let's get to the good stuff! The 'Scarface' mansion was designed by architect Bertram Goodhue in the early-1900s and it was Goodhue's first and only Mediterranean-inspired design. Dubbed "El Fureidis" (Little Paradise), the 11,547 square foot mansion was built in 1906 and is situated on just under 11 acres of land. It features seven bedrooms, six full and six half bathrooms, a three-story stair hall with floating staircase, two formal living spaces-one with a fireplace, banquet-sized dining room with barrel vault ceiling, gourmet kitchen with stainless steel appliances, breakfast room, family room, a Turkish bath, a home office, and much more.

Notable outdoor features include a gated entrance, a swimming pool with cabana, motor court, courtyard, expansive rear terrace, multiple fountains, multi-level reflecting pool, formal gardens, and a pavilion.
