About This Home

As of November 2025

Contemporary luxury meets timeless sophistication in this French-inspired estate with sweeping views of the Martinez hills. Perched on a serene 1.7 acre hilltop lot in prestigious Muir Oaks, the stunning property features a large motor court, distinctive slate-tile roof, manicured landscaping and resort-style backyard with pool, putting green, bocce court and bar. The 5 bedroom, 3.5 bath residence offers an open, light-filled floor plan ideal for entertaining and everyday living. The great room features beamed ceilings, built-ins, and a dramatic wall of French doors that frames breathtaking panoramic views. Designed for home chefs, the expansive kitchen features granite counters, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, double ovens, and an inviting eat-in nook with views. The renovated primary suite offers a sanctuary within the home, including a sitting room with cozy fireplace and spa-style bath. Downstairs, a separate library with a full bath offers flexibility as a second primary suite, office or possible conversion to attached ADU. Outside, the yard offers multiple patios, gardens, and a solar-heated pool and spa with water features. Don't miss the game room above the garage and the basement wine cave, with room for tasting table and 1,000+ bottles!
