Inspired by the timeless villas of Tuscany, this custom Mediterranean residence was designed to provide a luxurious yet comfortable lifestyle while embracing the beauty of its gently sloping site. The homeowners envisioned a sophisticated wine country retreat that combined traditional architectural character with the openness and functionality of modern living. A key design challenge was maximizing the buildable area while carefully balancing large expanses of glass with the proportions, detailing, and authenticity of classic Mediterranean architecture. Stone, stucco, clay roof tiles, wrought iron railings, and refined interior finishes create a warm and enduring architectural expression that feels both elegant and inviting.
At the heart of the home, a grand great room seamlessly extends to a covered outdoor porch, creating a natural connection between indoor and outdoor living spaces. One of the residence’s most distinctive features is the visual axis linking the primary suite, swimming pool, and pool house, establishing a strong sense of continuity throughout the property. Additional custom details include a dramatic full-slab kitchen backsplash and a temperature-controlled wine cellar tucked beneath the staircase. Built with enhanced structural engineering and electric radiant floor heating, the residence combines timeless Mediterranean design with modern comfort, durability, and performance, resulting in a custom luxury home tailored to contemporary wine country living.
