About this home
18.5 Acres | Two Designer Homes | Private Gated Retreat APN: 030-330-001-000 A rare opportunity to own a 18.5-acre private gated retreat in the prestigious Golden Bear Estates, offering two designer residences, resort-style outdoor living, and an unmatched blend of modern architecture, timeless elegance, and Northern California beauty. Perfectly situated just minutes from historic downtown Winters and within easy reach of Napa Valley, Lake Berryessa, Sacramento, and the San Francisco Bay Area, this estate offers a refined lifestyle in a location that balances privacy with accessibility. The Main Residence, designed by acclaimed architect Eric Doud, is a striking modern masterpiece wrapped in metal cladding and framed by soaring glass walls that capture sweeping hillside and oak views. Inside, vaulted ceilings and an open-concept design create light-filled living spaces. The gourmet kitchen features a Wolf 6-burner range, granite countertops, custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a farmhouse sink perfectly positioned to overlook the rolling hills. The dramatic great room boasts a Spark Modern Fire gas fireplace, exotic hardwood floors, imported porcelain tile, and radiant floor heating throughout. Three cantilevered Ipe wood decks extend the living space outdoors, providing seamless indoor-outdoor living and captivating vistas from every angle. The Second Residence embraces timeless country elegance while offering modern upgrades. A newly renovated kitchen pairs stylish finishes with updated appliances, while hardwood floors, marble bathrooms, a formal dining room, a den/office, and a cozy fireplace-warmed living room create a welcoming ambiance. A spacious sunroom invites year-round enjoyment, and multiple private decks — including one from the primary suite — showcase spectacular sunsets. Additional features include a bonus storage room above the home and a 1½-car garage with space for storage or workshop use. Outdoors, the property delivers a resort-like experience. A chlorine pool with sleek hardscaping is accompanied by an area to BBQ, scenic view terraces, and multiple entertainment patios. The privately located and partially fenced estate offers five gated entries, one with an electric operator, constructed with 6-inch steel posts, 2x2 rails, and wire fencing by Hines Fencing for durability and visual appeal. Ample parking is available for residents and guests, along with RV parking and a designated site for a future workshop, large car garage, or barn — complete with sweeping views and storage space for large tools, equipment, or vehicles. Mature and modern landscaping, extensive stonework, and garden paths enhance the natural surroundings, creating a setting that is both functional and breathtaking. Infrastructure is equally impressive, with a 2018 high-producing well serving both homes, a Culligan filtration system with sand separator, two engineered septic systems (main residence installed 2017, guest house completed 2021–2024 by Campi Engineering & Frank’s Septic), and two water storage tanks for backup and fire protection. Three leased propane tanks — one for the generator and two underground, one per home — ensure efficiency. A whole-property generator services both residences and is maintained annually by Mel Electric. Golden Bear Estates offers more than a home — it’s a lifestyle destination. With its blend of architectural sophistication, timeless charm, resort amenities, and proximity to renowned wine country, vibrant cities, and outdoor recreation, this property provides a sanctuary for those seeking serenity without sacrificing convenience. Whether as a full-time residence, multi-generational compound, or luxury weekend escape.
