Expansive use of glass, and wood, showcases the natural light of the Napa landscape, with sweeping southeast views of the rolling hills and distant sun-drenched vineyards.

The renovation expertly preserves the original mid-century/modernist style while incorporating contemporary luxury amenities. Four bedrooms and four bathrooms, with every bedroom opening to a private deck or patio. The fourth bedroom offers a unique advantage: an attached studio, with its own exterior entrance, ideal for a home office, professional consultation space or wellness room. The house was pre-planned for installing an elevator. Covered parking for 2 cars, with 3-plus additional off-street spaces. Close to dining, shopping and everyday conveniences. The local elementary and middle schools are a short distance away, along with multiple trails. Also accessible is the Ferry to San Francisco. Original drawings and plans displayed. Read Less
