This exquisite home, was designed to take advantage of it’s elevated structure, with high ceilings, large windows and fabulous views from every room. The outdoors are brought inside the home creating a constant sense of country sanctuary with varied views of vineyards, mountains, woods and rolling oak covered hillsides and valleys. From the house one can view Hecker Pass mountains, Redwood Retreat canyon and the peaks of the Diablo range with rolling hillsides and valleys in-between.Large porch, three decks, large flagstone patio, beautiful lawn, children’s play area, picnic area in the woods, seating areas throughout the vineyards and the hill behind the house is a wonderful natural oak wood with mossy trees and large rock outcroppings. The gated/fencing and cross-fencing of the property, coupled with landscaping that also provides privacy screens make this property a very private, quiet and secure compound. The owners have truly enjoyed lots of entertaining focused on the country lifestyle aspects of this property, from grape harvest parties, outdoor concerts, wine tasting and luncheons to huge kids’ outdoor parties. Plants and trees were appropriately selected for the site, including many native scrubs and plants. Surrounding the gorgeous grounds are olive trees, Japanese maples, willow trees, rose bushes, fruit trees, wisteria, trumpet vines and wildflowers and perennials for seasonal color.
