An exquisitely reimagined mid-century modern landmark estate, elevated to a new height of excellence, unfolds at the end of a private cul-de-sac, revealing a masterpiece of design, artistry, and luxury beautifully harmonizing with 4.5 acres at the end of Eagle Ridge Place. Offered for only the second time since its debut, the gated property is set within the prestigious Blackhawk Country Club, commanding sweeping panoramic views. Spanning 26,627 square feet, the residence is a masterful homage to Frank Lloyd Wright's iconic Fallingwater, embodying a refined expression of organic architecture where nature is seamlessly integrated into every aspect of design. This vision was realized through the collaboration of the Dahlin Group, interior designer Steve Chase, landscape architect Kimio Kimura, lighting designer Craig Robert, and contractor Michael DeBene. Arrival is marked by a dramatic 18-foot custom sculpture by Salvatore Pecoraro, leading into interiors of exceptional scale and warmth defined by a sophisticated interplay of wood, glass, and stone, enhanced by walls of newly tinted windows, back-lit onyx, soft LED illumination, and bespoke wool carpeting. The open-concept floor plan flows effortlessly from intimate living spaces to grand entertaining venues, including a formal dining room, media and game lounge, and dual chef's and caterer's kitchens. A spectacular over 7,000-square-foot ballroom features a hidden automobile access for white-glove display beneath nine chandeliers. Additional highlights include a 10,000-bottle climate-controlled wine cellar with a tasting room, a refined workshop space, seven luxurious bedroom suites, eight full baths, and seven powder rooms. The opulent primary retreat offers a private kitchen, sweeping views, and a spa-inspired bath. Two detached guest or staff apartments provide flexibility and privacy, while an elevator and sculptural staircases ensure seamless access across multiple levels. The grounds extend the home's architectural narrative outdoors with covered walkways featuring refinished teak ceilings, a pond with exotic Koi, a lagoon-style pool and spa with waterfall, a fully appointed outdoor kitchen and dining pavilion, and a private tennis court. Parking is abundant, with a four-car garage including golf cart capacity and a three-car carport. It is moments from championship golf courses, clubhouses, fitness & wellness amenities, and within reach of San Francisco, major airports, and top-rated SRVUSD schools.
