"The Big House" sits
high on a ridge between our north and south
vineyards. Set your sights to the north and
Mount Saint Helena dominates the view. To
the south lies the Santa Rosa plain, with
the coastline on the horizon. The Napa County
line is a four mile drive to the east with
the town of Saint Helena ten minutes beyond,
and the Russian River area expands to the
west.
The house is a tri-level, passive solar design,
with the front entry on the lowest level.
This lower story contains a carpeted suite,
with a bedroom and a queen size pillow top,
quilted, Stearns and Foster bed set. The
dresser and valances are adorned with hand
painted flowers and a comfy, pineapple, wicker
rocker sits in the corner.
The sitting room has a down filled sofa to
cuddle on, with a television and stereo if
you desire. This room converts into a bedroom
with use of the Murphy bed containing a "Temper-pedic" queen
size mattress, a space age foam that forms
to the contour of your body. There are hand
painted appointments and a painting by artist
John Michener. The bathroom has a his/her
shower, with hand painted tiles and a sunset
ceiling mural with walls that are fauxed
to match.
The
entry area leads you up a plush, carpeted
stairway, to the central level. Here you
will find the living room and balcony, the
grape room, the kitchen and dining area,
and the Master Bedroom and bath on the mezzanine.
The living room has two custom, down-filled
sofas facing each other over a glass coffee
table, forming the conversation area. This
area is surrounded by large windows that
face the northern view of Mount Saint Helena.
A large, leather chair fills a corner next
to a fire lit pellet stove. The walls are
fauxed a warm, Tuscan yellow-gold and covered
with large paintings of original artwork.
Slide open the glass door and step out onto
the balcony high above the vineyard below.
In a small room off of the living room, beneath
the stone bridge, you'll find a personal
retreat known as the grape room. Step in,to
the sound of running water from the corner
fountain. There is one chair in the room's
center, a leather recliner, a Panasonic full
massage model, and it's just for you! The
walls and the ceiling are painted in giant
grapes and you'll feel like a grape in the
canopy as you relax and gaze out the window.
The
kitchen is caterer ready. A Dynasty, six-burner
gas range/oven allows for professional preparation,
and a Kitchenaid commercial dishwasher with
built-in garbage disposal finishes the job.
Faux finishes and custom, hand-painted tiles
surround the working area and a view of the
pond is outside the kitchen window. In the
adjoining eating area is a spacious table
with upholstered chairs, and a matching buffet.
The room has large windows that look out
upon the south vineyards.
Take three steps up onto the mezzanine and
you'll enter the Master Bedroom suite, complete
with a French country, canopy bed. The king
size, quilted, pillow top Stearns and Foster
mattress completes the set. The suite contains
a 22 foot ceiling and private massage loft
with a fully adjustable table and an exotic
feinting couch.
The
suite is fully carpeted and warmed by firelight.
Fall asleep to the music of your bedroom
stereo system as you gaze up at the original
artwork ceiling mural. Awake in the morning
and enter the master bathroom, and step down
into the sunken tub. There is a his/her double
shower if you prefer.
Leaving the Master Suite from the loft, you'll
cross the stone bridge to the reading loft,
where a soft sofa and a stuffed chair awaits
your reading pleasure. Climb down the "firehouse" spiral
staircase from the reading loft and you return
to the living room. Exit out the rear door
to the patio and enjoy the mountain environment
from the teak furniture, or climb into the
Hot Springs Spa and revel in the show of
stars.
For dining and dancing for groups from 2 to
32, we present our cellar dining facility.
Equipped with a Baldwin Concert Grand Player
Piano and painted with scenic wall murals
of our vineyards, this room is the essence
of elegance in a country setting. Kick up
your heels on the custom, granite dance floor,
and visit the hidden, underground wine cellar.
This is an entertainment room like no other.
Professional caterers are available at your
request.
