Built in 2018 with exceptional craftsmanship, the main residence spans 3,188 sq ft. and features 3 spacious bedrooms plus a versatile den, which can easily be used as a 4th bedroom. Each bedroom includes its own ensuite bath, ensuring ultimate comfort and privacy. Designed to maximize breathtaking hillside views, this home includes expansive wraparound decks with custom lighting, ceiling fans, heat lamp, a built-in bar creating an ideal setting for outdoor entertaining. Inside, the open-concept design with soaring open-beamed ceilings and oversized windows floods the living spaces with natural light, framing stunning vistas of the surrounding landscape. The home boasts wide-plank white oak flooring, remote-controlled vented skylights, and a chef’s kitchen complete with high-end appliances, quartz countertops, and a spacious yet smartly hidden butler’s pantry equipped with a second fridge & freezer. In addition to the main residence, the property features a 3 level 1,005 sq. ft. studio/loft ADU barn. The barn includes a top of the line 3.5 BBL craft brewery/winery that is currently licensed by California ABC and Federal TTB, offering a potential income opportunity. The brewery/winery area can also easily be converted to temperature-controlled stables for equestrian accommodations, among many other recreational uses. The barn garage has built-in commercial air compressor, pressure washer, and nitrogen generator. Adjacent to the main home, a charming 551 sq. ft. carriage house offers a studio loft, kitchenette, full bathroom, private deck with sweeping views, and a 2-car garage with an EV outlet. Smart-Home technology enhances this estate, allowing seamless control of lighting, security, landscape watering and climate control. Additional modern amenities include dual-pane windows, central air conditioning, and a dog wash station in the laundry area. Designed in collaboration with McRae, Lambert, and Dunn, this home has earned recognition in renowned interior design publications, highlighting its timeless elegance. This is a rare opportunity to own a home that embodies both modern luxury and country charm, offering a lifestyle that’s second to none.
