architecture & design

Originally designed in 1997 by architect Jeffrey Mills, the residence balances California modernism and restrained Brutalism with the warmth of a French country house. Soaring volumes and a refined palette of timber, concrete, glass, and stone create interiors that feel both monumental and inviting, while expansive windows and glass doors keep the home intimately connected to its landscape.

living & entertaining

The great living room is defined by soaring ceilings, exposed structural beams, a striking fireplace, and walls of glass opening to a broad garden terrace. A formal dining and reception room with an integrated bar provides an elegant setting for entertaining, while a private screening room and library offers a more intimate retreat with a built-in library, integrated sound system, and sculptural wood ceiling.
