| Posted: 16 Sep 2019 08:00 AM PDT Magnificent panoramic views and breathtaking sunsets. That's just the beginning of the enticing and unmatched luxury and unsurpassed level of design waiting in a Los Gatos hillside estate.  Meticulously updated and appointed with fine finishes and a keen attention to detail, this almost 5,600-square-foot estate sits on almost an acre and offers an opportunity to own a turnkey executive home fully furnished inside and out. The location is ideal for that Silicon Valley high-tech professional. Enjoy the easy access to freeways and the airport and then retreat to the tranquility of this beautiful rural setting at 117 Madera Court, within about 2 miles of the charming downtown. Behind the original Tudor-style facade with its rich brick detailing including a herringbone patterned design is a fresh and stylish interior ideal for today's lifestyle. A drought-tolerant $100,000 front landscape was also updated. There are four luxurious bedrooms, three full bathrooms, two powder rooms, an executive office, family room/home theater, formal rooms and a chef's kitchen. A staircase descends to an 800-bottle temperature-controlled wine cellar and tasting room (not included in the square footage).  An Ipe infinity-edged deck with a glass paneled railing spans about 1,800 square feet across the back of the home showcasing amazing outdoor space and an inviting venue for outdoor entertaining California style. Among the highest quality materials and designer features are gorgeous pillowed-edge Walker Zanger limestone tile floors, custom ironwork banisters, custom cherry cabinetry, custom chandeliers designed by a Napa artist, surround sound inside and out, and luscious marble surfaces. Behind the leaded glass-paneled double front door is a welcoming foyer with a view of the sweeping staircase to the upper floor dedicated to the private bedrooms, and the staircase down to the wine cellar. Just off the foyer is the executive office, a light-filled room behind glass French doors and featuring view windows, built-in cherry cabinetry, and plush carpeting.  The almost 500-square-foot formal living room is a stunning room with a high ceiling, fireplace, spectacular views and French door access to the Ipe deck. An equally impressive formal dining room features decorative crown molding and a wall of windows that capture the amazing views. Throw open the French doors for a seamless flow to the deck and extension of the entertaining space. A fabulous gourmet kitchen is appointed with granite counters and full backsplash, an island/breakfast bar illuminated by a trio of pendant lights, custom-to-ceiling cherry cabinetry with upper glass-paneled doors, and a built-in flat screen TV. Updated appliances include a paneled Sub-Zero refrigerator and Miele coffee station in addition to dual ovens, warming drawer, cooktop, microwave, and dishwasher. The casual dining nook is spacious with a sliding glass door access to the deck. A butler's pantry also features custom cherry cabinetry with seeded glass-paneled upper cabinets, a marble counter and backsplash, and wine refrigerator.  A floor-to-ceiling fireplace with a stone surround anchors the expansive family room and home theater. This room also has an exposed beam ceiling, a built-in window seat with a front-facing garden view, and a sliding glass door access to the deck on the opposite side. There are two powder rooms on the main level. At the top of the stairs is a flexible use loft space with an oversize picture window and ideal setting for a casual office space or library.

| Sponsored: Danville estate makes the most of its amazing views of Mount Diablo - The Mercury News Posted: 18 Sep 2019 08:00 AM PDT The Las Trampas Regional Preserve on one side and spectacular unobstructed panoramic views of Mount Diablo and the San Ramon Valley hillsides on the other offer a magnificent setting for this grand west-side Danville estate.  The possibilities are endless for the pristine, more than 7.5-acre property that offers an abundance of buildable land and one of only a dozen estate properties that cover the 80 acres in Peters Ranch Estates. Create the ideal resort-style outdoor mecca with pool, spa, outdoor kitchen, cabana or guesthouse. Still more room is available to plant a vineyard, a grove of olive trees, a fruit tree orchard, design formal gardens, vegetable gardens and more. Create golf cart paths to traverse the property and natural bridges to span the seasonal creek that meanders through the property. This home's exclusive setting less than a mile to San Ramon Valley Boulevard, freeway and downtown access was the one of the first features that attracted current owners Ken and Irene Werner to the site. But the opportunity to see the majestic Mt. Diablo from just about every room and have a front row seat for its magnificent seasonal changes, sunrises and reflecting sunsets was what captured their hearts. The estate at 1801 Peters Ranch Road is located just off San Ramon Valley Boulevard at the San Ramon border. Masterfully designed and meticulously built in 2000, the estate features about 6,300 square feet of exceptional living space on two levels with two staircases. There are four generous-size bedrooms, five full bathrooms, formal living and dining rooms, an executive office, and a gourmet kitchen open to the stunning family room that features a soaring 25-foot vaulted ceiling. Additional flexible space includes a parlor, and a bonus/game room.  The home's Mediterranean style with handcrafted millwork, travertine columns and an abundance of natural light offers a comfortable elegance and is welcoming like a warm embrace. Waxed cool stone limestone tile floors and hardwood floors, both beautiful and durable, are featured in most rooms. Limestone is also showcased on the staircase, in decorative columns and in the three fireplace surrounds, including the fireplace surround in the family room that soars to the height of the 25-foot vaulted ceiling. Start enjoying the views the moment you step into the grand entry. The sweeping staircase features decorative and custom ironwork on the banister and the upstairs catwalk to the master suite.  No need for artwork in the formal living room where the oversize picture window frames the ultimate landscape view. The adjacent parlor also has the advantage of floor-to-ceiling windows, great natural light, and the opportunity to create a reading nook or music room. The formal dining room is a spacious room that can accommodate large gatherings. This elegant room has a barrel ceiling, and front-facing garden and Las Trampas views.
