‘Back to the Future’ icon Christopher Lloyd lists sleek CA estate. Take a look

A hillside house with dramatic views of the Pacific ocean has landed on the real estate market for $6.385 million in Santa Barbara. And it has a major Hollywood connection.

The three-bedroom, four-bathroom residence is owned by “Back to the Future” legend Christopher Lloyd, who is currently starring in the second season of Netflix’s hit series “Wednesday.”

The famous “One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest” actor and his wife Lisa bought the home in 2017, and it was remodeled for a tranquil feel that suited the couple.

“This home has been a special place for us, our sanctuary. Lisa and her creative team took great care in every detail, wanting to create a space that feels restorative and peaceful the moment you walk through the door,” Lloyd said.

Lisa noted that while she adored the land, the original house did feel right.

“When I bought the home, I absolutely intended to change the entire feel of it. I loved the location, but I didn’t love the house—now I do,” she said.

“Today it’s beautiful, private, creative, and peaceful. I wanted the landscape and the interiors to flow together, which wasn’t the case when we purchased it. Now the home is filled with calm colors, warm wood floors, and soft, rounded edges.”
