About This Home
There are homes that fit a place. Then there are homes that define it.This is one of those homes.Set high above the world, it looks across mountains, water, and sky with the quiet confidence that only true privacy can offer. Nothing crowds it. Nothing competes with it.Built with an unwavering commitment to quality, this home was designed to stand the test of time. Natural stone,rich hardwood floors, limestone finishes, and finely crafted millwork create a sense of quiet luxury that feels every bit as relevant today as when it was first built. The ceilings rise without apology. Light moves effortlessly through every room. Each space feels settled, calm, and exactly where it belongs. At the heart of the home, the kitchen was created for those who love both cooking and gathering. Exceptional craftsmanship, generous workspaces, premium appliances, including a Sub-Zero refrigerator, and thoughtful design make it equally suited for intimate family dinners or unforgettable celebrations. The primary suite is a retreat at day's end. Spacious, peaceful, and beautifully appointed, it offers the kind of comfort and serenity usually reserved for a fine spa. Outside, the grounds have matured into something truly special. Meticulously maintained gardens surround a lawn kept to the standard of a championship golf course. Every path, every planting, and every view feels intentional, creating a landscape that is as welcoming as it is beautiful. A true three-car garage provides room for vehicles, recreational gear, and everyday living without compromise. A private lower-level apartment offers comfort and independence for extended family, guests, or a caretaker. Beyond the home, a detached shop creates space to build, create, pursue hobbies, or simply keep life's tools where they belong. Some homes are measured by square feet. This one is measured by the life it makes possible. By quiet mornings overlooking the bay. By evenings spent gathered around the table. By celebrations shared with family and lifelong friends. By the rare feeling of arriving somewhere that simply feels right. There is only one like it.
