Resting upon a topographical wonder of over an acre of rare privacy and superior views, the Buchanan Estate is simply our ultimate location. Somehow both proximity and seclusion dance gracefully on this private knoll overlooking… everything.

Even the entry through the Deer Run gate keeps the secret of this Shangri-La estate. One enters a massive motor court to find the grounds tastefully landscaped, punctuated with outdoor art and tall palms. The sprawling one-story mid 50’s design of redwood, stone, and steel blends with the precious hillside while taking full advantage of the gorgeous site lines. One could be tempted to think of Gatsby, but he would be too insecure for such a place.

The formal entry opens to grand living and dining rooms with sumptuous herringbone wood floors, high ceilings, and floor to ceiling windows drinking in the views. The remodeled kitchen is a showpiece with a raised ceiling, custom cabinetry, fireplace, and French blue stone counters. Tall glass doors from this culinary cathedral open to a stunning outdoor Viking kitchen with stone flooring, beamed ceiling with heaters, and a firepit all looking out to the sunset views. There is also an equally impressive family room with its own vaulted ceiling and handsome limestone fireplace. These entertaining spaces are served by another full catering kitchen with stainless counters and appliances.

The private east wing has the master suite rooms as well as two additional bedrooms and their full bath. The master retreat has a large master bedroom with its own views, a huge dressing room with multiple closets, and master bath with three sinks, a shower, fireplace, and the largest private bath I have ever seen.

The north wing has the fourth bedroom and its full bath, laundry room, silver room, and a covered transition to the attached garage. There is also an attached guest quarters that has been used as a wonderful home office with its own views as well. Just a few of the additional features include: a mosaic tiled pool and waterfall spa by Aqua Artists, 5 zone central heat and air, 400-amp electrical service, security system, and both a two-car attached garage as well as a detached three car garage.
