This one-of-a-kind architectural award-winning French country home is located on a beautiful 3.6 acres in the premier Rancho Santa Fe community of Fairbanks Ranch. This European-styled home was designed by architect Don Edson and just rebuilt by custom builder Todd Parnell. It has been featured as a 3-time award winner in Homes & Gardens magazine. Located on a quiet cul-de-sac, one approaches the massive rustic wooden gates that open onto a manicured flagstone circular driveway, 3.6 acres of lush landscape, and a variety of plants and trees on tiered levels with large boulders and gardens. A wishing well and bridge over the bubbling creek add serenity and charm in addition to the numerous patios for entertaining. The interior grounds greet you with a large Koi pond at the entry. A magnificent solid wood door opens to a grand foyer that includes a fireplace and formal sitting area, along with oversized French doors that reveal the rose garden and water feature just outside. 35’x50’ great room with wood beam ceiling and magnificent entertainer’s bar provide the ideal setting for any gathering. Steps away is the wine tasting area that would rival any winery with a magnificent 2nd story office on the upper level. The primary bedroom suite offers a retreat area upstairs perfect for an exercise room or secondary oversized office. Each en-suite bedroom has its own private quarters for additional privacy and peace. Resort style pool, waterfall, and 10-person jacuzzi enhance any get together. Enjoy a game of tennis or basketball on the freshly painted court and be prepared to be swept off your feet.
