A 'Must-See' property ideal as a large family compound or corporate retreat with multiple living structures, sports facilities, lake, vineyards, and more with six bedrooms, six full baths, and 2 half-baths spread among 6 buildings in a campus-like setting only minutes to Calistoga. 6.3+ acres of Cabernet vineyards produce 18+ tons and award-winning wines by Thomas Rivers Brown resulting in a growing wine club should the new owner so desire. Howard Backen designed main residence, 3 guest cottages, pool, tennis, bocce, and basketball courts dispersed among gardens, fruit trees, and Heritage Oaks overlooking natural spring-fed pond in the spa-centric and lux epicenter of Wine Country. This property's setting and history set it apart as one of the most unique in Napa Valley. Situated in the northwest corner of Napa County on an extension of Diamond Mountain and in the Calistoga AVA. A property with this number of living structures and features could not be reproduced in Napa County today.
