Welcome to this custom-built masterpiece on 18 acres in the heart of central Portola Valley overlooking Jasper Ridge Biological Preserve. Located at the end of a long gated driveway, this magnificent property was built in 2001 by renowned builder RJ Dailey Construction. A just-completed remodel has transformed the home with the addition of two bedroom suites, new and remodeled bathrooms, plus a renovation to the guest house. The interiors and the landscaping blend harmoniously, emanating the natural elements of earth, water, and wood with subtle textures and soothing sounds from every vantage point. Extensive use of limestone and fine hardwoods are found throughout the three levels, all connected by a commercial-sized elevator. Massive view windows, some with corners of edge-to-edge glass, plus numerous skylights and French doors fill the home with light.

The public rooms include a formal-but-open entry that immediately presents the views, elegant living room, formal dining room, a dedicated office, and tremendous chef’s kitchen with adjoining family room. On the lower level, a flexible-use room ideal for fitness is found, but the real pièce de résistance is the sommelier-worthy multi-room wine cellar for 5,000+ bottles preceded by a tasting/dining area. Limestone walls and barrel-vaulted ceilings, along with a sculptural water feature, enhance the wine experience.

There are four bedrooms in the main home, each with en suite bath, including one that is brand new and one that is entirely remodeled. The lavish master suite with fireplace takes full advantage of the views and features a spa-inspired bathroom along with two fully customized wardrobe rooms. Three designer half-baths provide added convenience. The remodeled guest house doubles as a media center and includes a kitchen, private bedroom with en suite bath, plus a powder room. Connecting it all are the absolutely beautiful landscaped grounds comprising two separate parcels with expansive entertaining areas, a large outdoor kitchen, plus a spa, rock waterfalls, open meadows, and dazzling views – the quintessential Portola Valley lifestyle!
