Description

OCEAN VIEWS of Monterey Bay & local mountains. Nestled among oaks. A truly modern castle blends visionary architecture, custom craftsmanship, & extraordinary gardens. The estate masterfully balances the crisp angles of contemporary design with the organic curves of native coastal oaks while framing expansive, panoramic views of Monterey Bay. Guests are greeted by a striking hillside waterfall. The front entry opens to stunning vistas through wall-to-wall windows. The living room is highlighted by a mesmerizing indoor waterfall. The gourmet kitchen features custom stained ash cabinetry with burl wood highlights, accented with professional appliances & a live-edge bar. Flooded with natural light, the top-floor primary penthouse is a private sanctuary. The rooftop bedroom includes an en suite bathroom with an elegant soaking tub & private rooftop deck with views all the way to Steamer Lane. Downstairs, a second primary suite and a 3rd bedroom offer seamless access to the pool & outdoor entertainment decks. The lower level offers 2 versatile rooms, perfect for a custom music studio and workshop. Seclusion on the hillside acreage feels peaceful, with paths through the lush garden making walks around the estate a pleasure, all enhanced by an integrated, property-wide music system.
