Carey Kendall presents
At a magical spot along the prestigious Foxen Canyon Wine Trail, you will find La Quinta Norte, an enchanting 64+/- acre vineyard estate that includes what magazines have called “one of the world’s great houses”.
A private, gated entrance winds past vineyards, a pond, and bird habitat finally culminating at the entrance of the main residence nestled against a hillside, surrounded by sweeping terraces and lush gardens overlooking the vineyards.
The 20,000+/- square foot main residence designed by world renowned architects and interior designers, is 5 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms, with grand scale living that blends southwestern and Mediterranean influences. The house prominently features Yosemite slate materials throughout, warm wood beamed ceilings, 15th Century Celtic carved stone archways, clay wine cellar, and a water feature which cascades from the upper terrace down to the lower foyer. An abundance of glass opens the home to remarkable views and vistas while sound, lighting, and security systems compliment the exceptional comfort, design, and privacy of the house.
The terraced façade overlooks lush gardens and a free form rock swimming pool reminiscent of a tropical paradise. This oasis is completed by a fully appointed 2-bedroom, 3 bath guest cabana with changing room and steam room.
Just outside the walled garden is a lighted tennis court with viewing pavilion. A large, stocked pond is jointly used for recreational purposes and vineyard frost protection.
Comfortably distanced from the other residences is a 2,200+/- sf 2-bedroom, ½ bath staff/guest house as well as a 2-story structure now used as barrel storage and offices for the vineyard .
The vineyard produces premium estate grown wine from the approximately 20 acres of Riesling, Syrah, Sangiovese, Grenache, Cabernet Franc, and Cabernet Sauvignon varietals. With a perfect climate for growing of grapes, the valley has received world-wide acclaim as on one the great wine areas of the world.
It is now offered for the first time in many years, having had only 2 owners who have lovingly maintained and honored the creativity behind the design and build.
Address: 5200 Foxen Canyon Rd, Los Olivos, CA 93441
Price: $6,950,000
