Napa Valley Contemporary Retreat

This timeless country retreat designed and owned by renowned architect Sandy Walker is comfortably sited in its own private park-like setting with lovely views of the neighboring vineyards and classic established landscape of gracious oaks, tall cypress, expansive lawns and a single sentinel palm. One is welcomed into the residential compound through a broad central courtyard surrounded by ivy covered walls and with the tall neo classic contemporary residence and guest house on either side. The home showcases a luminous open great room with fabulously finished concrete floors, lofty ceiling, floor to ceiling windows and dramatic central spiral staircase that extends skyward to the third-floor loft. The sunroom/loggia with metal and glass roll-up doors creates a covered loggia with lovely views of the pool and tennis court while providing year-round connection with the outdoors. A relaxed den with built-in media center and attached bath offers extra room for overflow sleeping. A third-floor loft, second floor office and two wonderful bedroom suites with marble baths, all enjoy Juliet balconies and can also be accessed via elevator. An inviting guest house with kitchenette and en suite bedroom enjoys beautiful views of the mountains and central courtyard from its living room balcony. The property features wonderful outdoor living areas, including an array of sunlit terraces and a romantic grove enveloped in crepe myrtle with a built-in bar/buffet and abundant lounging and dining space. Built by a legendary architect for his own enjoyment, this remarkable property radiates the creativity, nuance and understated comfort that is distinctively Sandy Walker.
