A remarkable estate spread across 130 acres in Napa, CA is now available on the market for $22 million. This expansive property includes a Cabernet vineyard and features two contemporary white homes situated on Mount Veeder. The main residence, known as the “villa,” offers four bedrooms, a wood-paneled library/office, a fitness center, a kitchen, and spacious living and dining areas. With its impressive aesthetic, the property boasts numerous striking details, including the captivating “Folded Circles” sculpture by artist Fletcher Benton that greets guests at the front entry. The home also features majestic wings that artfully extend from each end, accommodating two additional bedrooms. Nestled behind the main house, a two-bedroom guest tower offers breathtaking 360-degree views of the picturesque Napa Valley.
The unique beauty of the estate extends beyond its architecture, as it also includes a stunning vineyard set against a picturesque landscape. Listing agent Arthur Goodrich from Sotheby’s International Realty – St. Helena Brokerage was in awe upon his first visit to the property, exclaiming, “Wow, where did this come from? I have never seen something this contemporary before in Napa Valley. It looks like a sculpture sitting on top of Mount Veeder. The uniqueness of the homes and the landscape sitting on a hill is just stunning.”
Blending modernism, Art Deco, and deconstructivism styles, this home, constructed in 1988, offers cathedral ceilings, angular lines, and ample glass windows and doors. Goodrich comments, “There are giant homes in Napa Valley, with 35-foot ceilings, but this one is more reasonable and manageable. It doesn’t feel like a monolith. It’s very comfortable.”
Between the main villa and the guesthouse tower, there is an in-ground pool that adds to the overall sense of luxury. The tower, designed by UK-based architect David Connor, boasts five stories and two bedrooms, earning it the distinction of being the tallest structure in all of Napa County. The tower’s top lookout area provides unparalleled 360-degree views of the stunning Napa Valley.
Aside from its remarkable architectural and design elements, the estate also features over 8 acres of premium cabernet vineyards. Several wells provide water for the homes and vineyards, which have garnered recognition for producing award-winning wines. Goodrich describes the Mount Veeder Cabernet Vineyard as being in its prime production stage, with the cabernet grapes offering exceptional quality.
Goodrich believes that the ideal buyer for this property would likely have an affinity for art or could even be a philanthropist. Furthermore, he suggests that a tech executive with a family could also be drawn to the estate. He envisions the property being used primarily as a secondary residence, particularly for someone living in the nearby Bay Area who can fully enjoy all it has to offer.
According to Goodrich, the current owners of the estate were immediately enamored with its design when they first laid eyes on it. He recounts, “They fell in love with it immediately and said right then they’d buy it.”
