On top of the Mountain! A great and big house with a world class view!! It s hard to find the right adjectives to describe this property. You can see for more than 100 miles with fabulous vistas from every room, patio and pavilion. Views include distant mountains (including Mt. Diablo on a clear day), as well as Columbia Airport and New Melones Reservoir. At night you can see the lights of valley cities as you sit in awe looking at the stars. In short, this property could be purchased for the view alone. However, the beauty of the home itself rivals the majesty of the view. This home is spacious and extensively remodeled with only the finest quality materials and luxury finishes. The great room is impressive with a huge rock faced fireplace and hearth. Two sets of Anderson French doors open out onto the deck with a beautiful fire pit surrounded by comfortable seating.

The custom, wall length, built in breakfront, is beautifully crafted with inset rain-glass doors to display your glassware and storage drawers for all your special dishware. Both rooms have custom hand-scraped hardwood floors and extensive wiring for entertainment and computer systems. The 450-sf chef s kitchen is the crown jewel of this amazing home.
