Property Description
A once in a lifetime opportunity has come to live in the country estate of your dreams! This unbelievable property was custom designed and built by renowned Central Valley builder, Mike Watts, and has been enjoyed as his personal home for many years. For one who must have only the best, this one is for you. From its gorgeous layout and incredible privacy nestled in 10 acres of naval oranges, to its scenic views of the Sierra Nevadas, this is truly a retreat to call home! Found down a privately maintained road just minutes from Exeter, this 4,688 sq ft 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath home features every possible luxury. A modern Craftsman design, the builder has incorporated unique elements such as a tongue and grove barrel entry ceiling, tray ceiling in dining room, and 13-ft ceilings in formal living. The home is designed for family living as well as off-the-chart entertaining: chef's kitchen, outdoor dining, living, and kitchen spaces, plus an additional covered pergola with poolside seating and views of cascading feature waterfall. Inside, the home's attention to detail is without equal. Kitchen showcases Quartzite countertops, Wolf appliances, refrigerator drawers plus a Subzero, and charming adjacent hearth room with fireplace perfect for curling up with a cup of coffee to read or watch the kids play. The features of the home are too extensive to list and must be seen in person to truly appreciate the quality and craftsmanship of the home. Main living space consists of a split floorplan with the west wing featuring 3 bedrooms, two baths, and a media room/ office, separated from formal living and dining by a leaded glass pocket door. Central and west wings feature formal living and dining, kitchen, hearth room, great room with rounded window vistas to pool and orchard, walk in pantry, bonus craft room, and huge primary suite featuring Rainforest marble countertops. Owned solar and a 4000 sq foot shop are further amenities. In a word, this property is simply UNMATCHED.
