Mt. Veeder Contemporary Vineyard Estate 3000 Mount Veeder Road Napa, California 94558 United States

Rarely an opportunity presents itself to own a true architecturally significant property with premium Cabernet vineyards and expansive views of the Napa Valley. This Mount Veeder estate property is home to an extraordinary masterpiece that seamlessly weaves together elements of diverse styles: Modernism, Art Deco, and a touch of Deconstructivism. Set on 130± acres spanning two legal parcels in the Mt. Veeder AVA and against the breathtaking backdrop of the Napa Valley, this estate is a testament to artistic innovation and design synergy.

At its heart stands a villa residence that defies convention, a structure that blends contemporary and modern influences with the grace of sculptural design. The Villa, pool, and guest tower were designed by UK-based architect David Connor for the heir to a Swedish bread fortune and published in both 20th Century Architecture by Jonathan Glancy and Architecture in the Twentieth Century, by Gössel and Leuthäuser. Said to have played host to the Dalai Lama and numerous other guests of distinction, the main residence appears as a calm white monument positioned perfectly on a lush green lawn shared with a dramatic black Fletcher Benton "Folded Circles" sculpture. Majestic wings gracefully extend from each end of the Villa, akin to sculpted elements reaching skyward. These wings encase two of the four private bedrooms, offering an artistic juxtaposition of form and function.

Inside, angular lines and a dark marble foyer set the tone for an unforgettable experience in an environment that challenges customary norms. The Villa includes 4 bedrooms, 4.5 bathrooms, a bookshelf lined library/office, gym, dining, and entertaining spaces. The view from the main living area is defined by an iconic guest tower reaching toward the sky and flanked by draped flags—an elevated testament to design that purportedly claims the title of the tallest structure in all of Napa County - containing 2 bedrooms and bathrooms, kitchen, and "eagles' nest" look-out on top with 360 degree views of the Napa Valley and surrounding areas. An inviting swimming pool sprawls elegantly between these architectural marvels, serving as a tranquil oasis for repose and rejuvenation.

The property's allure is further enhanced by its 8+ acres of meticulously tended premium Cabernet vineyards that produce award-winning wines, and a multitude of wells providing ample water for the residences and vineyards. An updated 2 bedroom/2 bathroom caretaker's home sits on the adjoining parcel that is included in the sale.

The Villa, the vineyards, and the land of this magnificent estate converge to create a narrative that offers extraordinary possibilities to its next owner. This Villa residence itself stands as a symphony of contrasts—bold and understated, classic and avant-garde—all orchestrated to create an environment that sparks the imagination and ignites the senses. It is the ideal property for an art lover, a collector, or anyone who appreciates stunning architecture, commanding views, and fine wines.

This 130+ acre offering encompasses two parcels that include the Villa, guest tower, and pool, as well as 8+ acres of premium Cabernet vines just entering their prime, a caretakers home, an additional 2-vehicle detached garage, a small log cabin, and ample water. The Fletcher Benton 'Folded Circle' sculpture that adorns the front lawn and an extensive estate wine library also convey with the property.
