Nestled in the heart of Reliez Valley and surrounded by mature trees, this stunning 4,715-square-foot residence offers a serene private sanctuary just steps from the trailheads of Briones Regional Park. A rare combination of refined elegance and natural seclusion, this home provides both grandeur and comfort in a tranquil setting.

Enter through the peaceful front walkway, where a cascading water feature sets a calming tone. Inside, the layout unfolds with balance and grace—formal entertaining areas to the left, casual gathering spaces to the right—unified by newly installed Duchateau French oak hardwoods that run seamlessly throughout the main floor.

To the left of the entry, a 384-square-foot living room is anchored by a striking limestone fireplace and connects to the formal dining room, which accommodates 10–12 guests under lofty ceilings. Expansive windows reveal a lush valley canopy, featuring white oak, tangerine, peach, nectarine, fig, lemon, and orange trees—an idyllic backdrop for entertaining year-round.

To the right lies the heart of everyday living: a spacious family room with a second limestone fireplace and vaulted ceiling, flowing into a breakfast nook graced with custom-lit display shelving, bench seating, and generous storage. Oversized windows frame views of the landscaped garden and inviting pool area. At the center, the impeccably designed chef’s kitchen features Dacor and Sub-Zero appliances, Caesarstone countertops, and an expansive island with bar seating for three.

Entertainment is elevated to a whole new level. The family room includes an 85” Sony display and professionally calibrated 7.2 surround-sound system. Just beyond, a 400-square-foot state-of-the-art cinema awaits—fully sound-attenuated and outfitted with a 15-foot anamorphic screen, Sony commercial-grade laser projector, and Dolby Atmos 7.2.4 3D audio system. With plush seating for 12 to 14, this space creates a truly immersive experience, ideal for family movie nights and unforgettable sleepovers.

For work or creative pursuits, a large main-level office is tucked away in a quiet corner, with dual workstations framed by illuminated boiserie and surrounded by garden views on three sides—an inspiring setting for productivity.

Downstairs, all five bedrooms are thoughtfully located for privacy and quiet. The principal suite is a private retreat, featuring a third fireplace, garden views, and direct access to a large deck with a premium Caldera spa. A walk-in closet with custom-lit cabinetry and a spa-like bathroom—complete with jetted tub, marble-tiled steam shower, dual vanities, and luxurious fixtures—complete this calming escape.

Among the additional bedrooms, one functions as a second principal suite, offering an en-suite bathroom, built-in desk, and private access to a semi-circular deck with an outdoor fireplace beneath a towering white oak. A dedicated gym—formerly an au pair suite with a separate entrance—rounds out the lower level.

Indoor-outdoor living is a cornerstone of the home’s design. The outdoor dining terrace, warmed by a fireplace and heat lamp, comfortably seats 12 to 14. A few steps below, the lush lawn and heated pool beckon, with a remote-controlled retractable safety and insulating cover and surrounding sun deck. Outdoor speakers and iPhone-controlled smart systems—including Lutron lighting—enhance comfort and convenience throughout the home.

A two-car garage offers ample built-in storage, while a sport/motor court and private driveway provide additional parking. A durable slate roof adds fire resistance and peace of mind.

Although located just two miles from top-rated Springhill Elementary and Acalanes High School, this luxurious retreat feels a world apart—an ideal balance of privacy, convenience, and elegant living.
