Property Description
This one-of-a-kind estate is tucked away behind a gated drive featuring a 2-sided infinity pool & spa. With a nod to its mid-century modern heritage, the home is updated throughout with vaulted ceilings, skylights and bold beams setting the tone. The kitchen is the heart of the home with marble countertops, a giant island, full-sized Sub-Zero refrigerator & separate freezer and a French La Cornue range. Eat inside in the casual dining area or directly outdoors with the view of the valley and pool. Enjoy the fireplace or TV from the adjacent family room. There's a formal dining room, living room and extra den plus office. Don't miss the 350sf primary ensuite with two sinks, free-standing tub and walk-in closets. There are 3 more bedrooms near the primary, and the 5th bedroom is on the opposite side of the home with ensuite bathroom. The 2-sided infinity pool is custom designed to show off the view. The gated front yard also provides a large flat play area along with a 3-car garage and parking for 4+ add'l cars. Originally designed by Henry Hill, the legendary co-founder of the Second Bay Tradition, this estate stands as a testament to a movement that sought to harmonize modern design with the rugged beauty of Northern California.
