PROPERTY
This light, bright and modern home (opens in new tab) is built on the Wildhorse Valley Reserve in Napa and overlooks the whole valley, including the 27 acres that belong to the house. The 6,000 square foot home was designed to capitalise on sweeping views from every room. The property sits over three levels, all accessible via a generous sized lift – as well as a modern staircase. The lower level includes a 3-car garage, a lift, and various mechanical rooms and storage spaces. The middle level includes open floor plan living spaces that incorporate the kitchen, dining room, pantry, living room with large stone fireplace, office, laundry room, master suite with his and her walk-in wardrobes, and two bathrooms. The upper level includes three additional bedrooms, all en-suite.
Elena Calabrese (opens in new tab) was brought into the project to consult with the builders on the interior design and pre-sale staging (the property is on the market here (opens in new tab)). She elegantly combined contemporary design with organic components, incorporating clean lines to suit the open living space and majestic hilltop landscape. She also worked closely with Alex Ray Art Advisory on incorporating art in every space. The result is a very curated and sophisticated interior to match the property's luxurious style.
