The almost 8 acres provide an exquisite setting for the sparkling diamond of a pool, elevated with an infinity-edge, placed center courtyard, with 350,000-gallons; it’s just a few feet short of Olympic length with depths up to 14 feet. Other exterior features include a 15 person Jacuzzi, and a temperature-controlled Trout Pond with a 2 story Waterfall. The 1,000,000-gallon capacity pond is stocked with rainbow trout and mallard ducks; the only one of it’s kind in California. It is adorned with perennials that bloom at various times in the year and drop into the beautiful cliff stone surrounding the entire pond. The water is heated by a custom gravity separator with UV filters, and is chilled for the trout by a 300-ton central cooling plant.

There is close to one acre of porches, decks, loggias, and walkways hewn of French limestone. One is brought to the Main House, elevated in a Palladian Neoclassical style by way of a dramatic 600-foot Blue Stone private entry drive that ends in a circular flow entrance that allows for 60-foot truck access, or multiple limousines. The property is served by its own dedicated fire hydrant and has a 2.5-inch fire line that encircles the entire building pad.
