Details

This stunning vineyard retreat offers the perfect blend of tranquility and luxury. The property began with a small stone cottage that grew in stages to become an expansive 5BR/7.5BA residential compound. A beloved venue for family weddings and exclusive events, it has attracted notable guests, including famous golfers Arnold Palmer and Billy Casper who were entertained there during Transamerica Golf Tournament at Silverado in the 1980s and 1990s. Now, for the first time in almost 40 years, this exceptional estate is available for purchase.

Spanning 15.44 +/- acres across two legal parcels, the contemporary country compound includes breathtaking views of its 6.44 +/- acre terraced Cabernet Sauvignon and Sauvignon Blanc vineyard and across the valley to the Vaca Mountains. The Cabernet Sauvignon has been included in wine rated 97 points by Robert Parker.
The 3,856 +/- sq ft main residence, originally constructed during the 1980s and thoughtfully remodeled, features four bedroom suites, providing privacy and comfort. Tall French doors line three of the home’s perimeter walls, offering indoor-outdoor living, an abundance of natural light, and idyllic views from almost every room. Inside, the heart of the home is a magnificent great room, with a cathedral ceiling, wood-burning fireplace, and floor-to-ceiling cabinetry. The exceptionally spacious kitchen with a sitting and casual dining area features a large island, multiple workstations, and high-end appliances, creating ideal spaces for large groups to gather to cook and relax.

Steps away from the main residence is the charming guest house, created from the property’s original stone cottage. This structure features an en-suite bedroom with a separate entrance, a beautifully remodeled game room with a stone wall interior and an attached bath, plus additional bonus spaces providing options for versatile living.

The outdoor spaces of the retreat are equally impressive. A 45-foot long in-ground pool, pool patio, and spa overlook an expansive lawn while capturing dramatic views of the vineyard and across the valley. A 5,000+/- sq ft wraparound deck provides space for large events, outdoor dining, lounging, and enjoying the serene surroundings. Farther up a gentle incline from the residential compound, a stream-fed pond adds to the property’s natural beauty while providing water for the vineyard’s frost protection. The estate also features a tennis court, complete with changing and equipment rooms and a viewing patio, while a 1,000 +/- sq ft barn located on the vineyard’s perimeter provides storage space and a rustic party venue.

The property’s mature landscaping, including groves of oak trees, towering cypress, old rock walls, and a variety of fruit trees, creates a timeless atmosphere. A seasonal creek runs through the land, adding to the estate’s charm, while the private well ensures an abundant water supply.

Located on the cooler western slope of the valley, just 7 minutes from St. Helena’s Main Street, 5 minutes from the Rutherford Grill, and 12 minutes from Yountville’s renowned dining scene, this retreat offers unparalleled access to the best that Napa Valley has to offer.
