This stunning estate is masterfully constructed in the style of a well-aged authentic Italian farmhouse, yet with all the luxuries for a 21^st century lifestyle. The entire setting of 3.24 acres exemplifies an Italian borgo (village) with its numerous buildings, pool, tennis, and of course, bocce – all intertwined with trees and gardens befitting the Italian countryside. Adding authenticity, the property was created from 18 containers of materials imported directly from Italy. Beamed ceilings, hand-hewn antique doors, brick finishes, and tile floors embody classic, Old World charm. The home’s 4 bedrooms, each with en suite bath, are perfectly arranged for flexible use plus there is a 2-bedroom, 2-bath guest house and a 1-bedroom, 1-bath caretaker’s cottage. A pool and spa, pizza oven and barbecue terrace, plus tennis and bocce courts invite outdoor entertaining and recreation. This peaceful retreat is just minutes to Highway 280 for an easy commute to San Francisco or Silicon Valley and benefits from access to excellent Las Lomitas schools.
