Set at the end of a wraparound driveway behind a private gated entrance, the 8,000-square-foot home features six bedrooms and six and a half bathrooms.
The main house boasts of Santa Barbara, Tuscan and Spanish styles while the high ceilings, chandeliers and wrought-iron railings make a distinctive statement.
While one of the master suites includes a rooftop deck, other notable features of the estate include a media room/theater, a wine cellar and living spaces, rendering in mountain views.
