About This Home
As of July 2019Nestled on an elevated site within the prestigious Varian Ranch community lies this elegant 5 bed, 4.5 bath French country estate. Built by a doctor as a tribute to his French wife, every detail was carefully planned to transport the occupants of the property to the French countryside. Breathtaking views and complete privacy are evident as you step through the property’s front gates where the senses are ensnared with the scent of lavender and roses from the calming landscaping. Attention to detail is revealed as you pass through the romantic rose covered arbor leading to the front of the home where white wood shutters encase large windows trimmed with imported iron railings. The home’s warmth is felt as you enter through the European style wood front door and are greeted by imported limestone floors and a limestone staircase with French-craftsman made iron railings. Make your way through the large living spaces while the eyes gaze into the vast and expansive views of Edna Valley wine country. The family room and gourmet chef’s kitchen are the true heart of the home featuring an open floor plan and spectacular oak beamed ceilings. A uniquely private, full master bedroom suite on the main floor ensures a relaxing retreat for the owners. The upper floor provides an additional master suite along with two large bedrooms and two full baths. While maintaining the charming Provencal style, the estate features modern upgrades including brand new three zone air-conditioning systems.
