In our humble opinions, this is one of the most special pieces of terra firma we've seen!....gentle, undulating hills, heritage oaks, rock outcroppings, and jaw-dropping views that stop you in your tracks...all surrounding a contemporary farmhouse, guesthouse and vineyard.
The residence, designed and built by Robert Heller, is approx. 12 yrs. old and comprises 2200 sq. ft. With redwood siding and steel roof, the focal point is the greatroom with stone fireplace, hardwood floors, open kitchen design and doors to the deck which take advantage of the gorgeous Valley views. A fireplace, with tile hearth, graces the master bedroom which also opens to the south-facing deck. Additionally is a guestroom with guest bath and a 3rd bedroom/study....all on one level.
The darling guesthouse offers a fully equipped kitchen, separate bedroom and loft. The back porch (designed with rocking chairs in mind) overlooks the pond.
The vineyard, added to the ranch in 2000, covers approx. 4 acres and is planted in Sangiovese and Sauvignon Blanc vines.
Other features of "Dog Star" include a flagstone terrace, 2-car garage, climate-controlled wine room, small sheep barn and gated entry.
"Dog Star" is one mile from Hwy. 128 in Yorkville and a 2 hour drive from San Francisco. As a full-time family residence or a weekend/summer home.
