A longtime retreat and gathering spot for the country's
well-heeled set, this inviting 5-bedroom, 5.5-bath country estate
resonates with a history rich in architectural details and colorful
memories.
Built in the mid 1930s and incorporating singular materials recovered
from the neighboring Flood estate in Atherton, wonderful surprises await
around every corner. Rustic
wooden doors with strap hinges, a stunning stained glass window, antique
marble sinks, rough-sawn redwood
timbers, a half-bath with a wall of guest signatures dating back to
1936. all combine to create a priceless and captivating living
environment that has been lovingly maintained by the current owners.
Joined by an enchanting atrium, grand public rooms, a magnificent,
lodge-like recreation room, and an immense kitchen with updated
appliances plus a butler's pantry cater to grand-scale entertaining and
expansive relaxation. A large, versatile-use sitting room adjoins the
spacious master suite, which also features two bathrooms and dressing
areas. Outside, brick and gravel paths meander over some 3+ acres of
grounds and reveal a sheltered loggia, tremendous formal rose garden,
picnic area with barbecue station and firepit, a pool, pool cabana
("Poker Palace"), 4-horse stable plus corral, and 4-car garage with work
and tool shops.
