Situated mere minutes from Calistoga’s world-class spas, wineries, and culinary destinations, this property is an unparalleled expression of contemporary refinement, privacy, and natural beauty—a modern sanctuary at the intersection of architecture and landscape. Designed by the renowned Signum Architecture and brought to life by Fairweather and Associates in 2020, this private retreat redefines modern luxury.

A gated entrance and short drive unveil a home described by its architects as possessing a “strong sense of horizontality and a palette of wood-on-wood, punctuated with metal.” The striking composition of concrete, stained cedar, aluminum-framed expanses of glass, Shou Sugi Ban siding (insect and fire resistant) all unified beneath a sleek parapet roof. The layout is thoughtfully attuned to the landscape, with Terremoto/Alain Peauroi’s masterful landscape design complementing the architecture’s geometric precision. In keeping with the home’s open and transparent ethos, a carport replaces the traditional garage, ensuring the architecture remains unobtrusive and deeply connected to the land.

Inside, Alison Damonte’s light and textural interior unfolds - open yet intimate, airy yet grounded. The distinctive charred finish of the Japanese shou sugi ban extends beyond the exterior, lending a sculptural warmth to the dining area, where the boundary between inside and out dissolves. Every space, from the living and dining areas to the tranquil bedrooms, is meticulously designed to frame breathtaking vistas.

Walls of glass disappear and dissolve the boundary between indoors and out, leading to an inviting heated pool and spa and outdoor kitchen with expansive views. A private tennis court adds to the resort-style living.

Set on 22+ acres of pristine terrain, this extraordinary residence is masterfully sited between two gentle knolls, where a creek meanders below and sweeping panoramas unfold in every direction. To the south, the valley stretches into the distance; to the north, the protected 3,000-acre Pepperwood Preserve offers an uninterrupted expanse of preserved wilderness, home to the headwaters of three creeks that flow into the Russian River.

Recognized for its architectural significance, the residence has been featured in Dwell Magazine and the acclaimed book At Home in the Wine Country—a testament to its timeless design and symbiotic relationship with nature.
