Welcome to an extraordinary expression of luxury living in Ruby Hill, a residence where timeless design, exquisite craftsmanship, and a celebration of space and light converge to create an unforgettable first impression. Situated on 1.25 acres across two parcels of flat, usable land and overlooking the 16th fairway of Ruby Hill Golf Course, this 12,570-square-foot home offers approximately 14,000 square feet of combined indoor and outdoor living space. With six bedrooms, six full baths, and two half baths, grandeur, refinement, and meticulous craftsmanship are evident in every detail.

Step into the circular foyer, crowned by a 30-foot domed ceiling and a glimmering chandelier that commands attention from the moment you arrive. A sweeping wrought iron staircase ascends gracefully, hinting at the home’s expansive upper floor, while travertine floors and cool stone tile extend both inside and out, grounding the entry with extraordinary elegance. Soaring 13-foot ceilings, extensive crown molding, and triple coffered ceiling details elevate the architectural presence throughout.

From the foyer, the home unfolds effortlessly, guiding you through grand living spaces that balance formality with comfort. The formal living room welcomes you with soaring trey ceilings, recessed lighting, and a hand-carved 20-foot limestone fireplace, while walls of windows bring the outdoors in, opening to terraces that hint at the estate’s serene gardens and pool beyond. The formal dining room exudes sophistication, with refined architectural detailing and a fireplace that sets a gracious tone for memorable gatherings.

The kitchen is an impressive centerpiece, featuring granite countertops, a center island of commanding scale, and custom wood-paneled appliances that resemble fine furniture. Culinary amenities include a newly installed 8-burner Wolf gas range, three ovens, a microwave, and a farmhouse sink, complemented by dedicated spaces for a coffee bar, breakfast bar seating, and a sunlit breakfast nook. Just beyond the kitchen, a custom desk area occupies a quiet hallway leading to the walk-in pantry, offering a discreet workspace within easy reach of the home’s heart.

The adjoining family room is anchored by a fireplace and a wall of custom cabinetry with intricate millwork, providing a refined environment for casual gatherings. Expansive proportions and thoughtful circulation make the transition from kitchen to family room effortless, creating a space that is both functional and visually commanding.

Adjacent to the main living areas, the executive office exudes timeless elegance, with gorgeous wood paneling, a boxed beam ceiling, and hand-painted walls and ceilings that reflect the home’s custom craftsmanship. A private room for electronics and filing ensures seamless organization while maintaining the refined atmosphere, making this office both functional and exceptionally polished.

Beyond the family spaces, the home offers a suite of entertainment and lifestyle rooms. The home theater provides an immersive cinematic experience, featuring soundproof construction, a 10-foot HD projection system, and integrated audio, all connected through a whole-home Triad central stereo system and Lutron lighting system. The billiards room invites relaxed gatherings beneath soft, ambient lighting, whether playing pool, watching the fire, enjoying a television program, or sitting at the card table or bar. A wine cellar provides a sophisticated backdrop for tasting and display, while an exercise room offers a serene environment for wellness.

A main floor bedroom suite provides a private space for guests or multi-generational living, complete with a walk-in closet and an en-suite bathroom with a tub-over-shower. French doors open directly to the backyard, offering access to the outdoor spaces.

A second staircase near the kitchen leads to the upper floor, where the home’s private quarters unfold with equal grandeur. The primary bedroom suite is a sanctuary of refinement, featuring a fireplace, an intimate sitting room, and doors opening to a private balcony that frames sweeping views of the golf course, Mount Diablo, and the Livermore Valley. Adjacent to the primary suite, a bonus room offers versatile space that can serve as a nursery or a 6th bedroom, enhancing the suite’s flexibility.

The home’s outdoor spaces are a seamless extension of its grandeur, designed for both relaxation and entertaining at the highest level. Approximately 1,500 square feet of covered and open-air living areas include two expansive loggias that provide distinct settings for outdoor living. One, located just beyond the kitchen, features ceiling-mounted heaters, a newly installed built-in Wolf barbecue, and a fireplace, offering an elegant venue for dining or casual gatherings. The second loggia, situated within the gated pool area, is equally sophisticated, with ceiling-mounted heaters, a fireplace, and a built-in barbecue, creating a refined environment for poolside entertaining. Travertine surfaces continue throughout the outdoor spaces, reinforcing the home’s cohesive design.

The Pebble Sheen pool shimmers beneath waterfalls, accompanied by a 12-person spa and manicured gardens, all framed by sweeping views of the surrounding hills and the 16th fairway of Ruby Hill Golf Course. Thoughtful landscaping blends serenity with spectacle, featuring olive and lemon trees and carefully curated plantings, while private corners offer intimate seating areas for reflection or conversation.

Within the gated pool area, a separate living quarters provides refined comfort.
