About the Land
This ultra-prime sixty-seven acre buildable parcel enjoys one-of-a-kind spectacular 180-degree vistas of the valley floor, the dramatic Mayacamas Mountains, and beyond to San Francisco. The property has received coveted erosion-control plan approval for a ten-acre hillside vineyard, contiguous to Stags Leap AVA and with similar well-drained stony loam soils.
The building site area affords a considerable amount of flat usable land, suitable for lawn, gardens, and outdoor entertaining around the existing pool and pool house. Although the former main house was destroyed in the 2017 fire, Napa County has provided attractive entitlements that will benefit the new owner.
The infrastructure, including electric service, septic, and a high-production water well, has all been restored. Located just five minutes from the Soda Canyon Store, a convenient distance to downtown Napa and to San Francisco, this one-of-a-kind property has all the elements to become Napa Valley's preeminent vineyard estate.

What Makes It Singular
The valley floor unrolls below in vineyard rows. The Mayacamas range rises on the far side, ridge after ridge. On a clear afternoon, the Bay catches light beyond the southern hills. The view is not a feature of the property. The view is the property.
Napa County has approved an erosion-control plan for a ten-acre hillside vineyard. The soils are stony loam, well drained, contiguous with Stags Leap AVA. The permit is the rarest thing in the valley. It is already here.
A Mediterranean stucco pavilion with a long lap pool, a round spa, a wet bar, a media room, and a stone terrace. It survived the 2017 fire intact. The new owner steps onto a working stage from the day of close.
The former main residence was lost. In its place, the County has issued attractive rebuild entitlements, and the well, septic, and electric service have been restored. The next chapter is a clean architectural commission on a finished site.
