This grand residence combines the true essence of both the California lifestyle and the European countryside in a private and discrete setting. Arriving through the entrance gates at the end of the street to 3.45 acres, a family treasure unfolds amid manicured grounds dotted with mature trees and redwood groves. The fully renovated main residence immediately showcases elements of the Neoclassical style inspired from 18^th century country homes in Europe. Inside, cast plaster moldings from British plaster artisans Stevensons of Norwich adorn the ceilings, floors are finished in hand-hewn hardwood, and there are 9 fireplaces, many with antique mantelpiece. Exceptional quality is evidenced at every turn, nowhere more apparent than in the magnificent formal library inspired by 18^th century Scottish architect Robert Adam complete with automated sun protection, adjoining garden room for reading, and lower level librarian’s office.

While formal rooms are perfect for hosting philanthropic events and grand gatherings, this home is equally designed for comfortable daily living complete with a family entrance to the west wing. Abundant natural light fills the home, French doors provide outdoor access from almost every room, and incredible storage provides for every lifestyle need. Space for fitness, play, and studying are suited for family living, private offices accommodate the executive lifestyle and household needs, and a sumptuous main-level master suite with two full baths and office is the perfect retreat at the end of the day. At the center of it all, a fabulous kitchen and family room are certain to be a central gathering place for everyday living and media enjoyment.

The manicured grounds are equally impressive with a sun-swept pool and spa, vast loggia, and intimate courtyard – all connected by formal gardens. Plus, a rooftop deck awaits with panoramic views across the San Francisco Bay and western hills. Completing this world-class property is its location midway between San Francisco and Silicon Valley with access to academically acclaimed schools in the Las Lomitas district.
