On a 3-acre lot, framed by the majesty of the western foothills, one can revel in the privacy afforded by this estate’s coveted Los Altos Hills location. Indulge in dramatic sunset views on more than 4000 square feet of decks and harbors, masterfully arranged to maximize relaxation and recreation. Add a home fitness center, state-of-the-art theatre, first-class audio system, flawless security, massive wine cellar, home office, spa-like bathroom… and life is good.

At the end of a cul-de-sac, behind an impressive mahogany gate, 24301 Elise Ct arouses the imagination as one approaches. Mature oak trees line the driveway, and the simplicity of clean geometric lines calms the soul. Standing in the museum-like entryway, before one even steps foot in the foyer, one is struck by the magnitude of design expertise vested in this home.

The pavilion-style living room, with its soaring ceilings and double-height retractable mahogany-cased doors, anchors the home’s interior and exterior spaces. A breezeway offers easy access to the infinity pool, oversized fire pits, outdoor kitchen, lounges, and lawns. Overlooking the pool is your dining room; imagine serving a gourmet meal while savoring sunset views of the lake and western foothills –– this setting is nothing short of inspirational! Retractable mahogany-clad pocket doors allow seamless terrace access for those warm summer nights under twinkly lights.

Adjacent to the dining area is a gourmet kitchen the most discerning chefs (and palates) will appreciate: From the Bulthuap custom cabinets, central station with stainless steel countertops and Wolf range, and Calacatta-clad waterfall island to the espresso bar, walk-in pantry, and Sub-Zero fridge, no detail has been overlooked. Three Meile dishwashers, dual Wolf ovens, and three sinks make any gathering effortless.

This gracious home is truly an entertainer’s paradise: enjoy a state-of-the-art McIntosh-equipped and Crestron-controlled audio system; host friends at the fully-equipped Carrera-clad bar with seating for six, complete with Italian-made Boffi cabinets and Sub-Zero refrigerators. From the well-appointed theater w/plush seating for 8 to the wine tasting room, your guests will enjoy a seamless experience. Fourteen televisions throughout the home can be synced to play in unison, and four fireplaces provide just the right ambiance.

Designed with the wine connoisseur in mind, a 3000-bottle wine cellar and tasting room on the lower level is temperature-controlled to ensure ideal conditions for your prized collection. Of course there are temperature-controlled Sub-Zero wine refrigerators in both the kitchen bar as well.

Throughout the home you’ll find radiant floor heating, built-in vacuums, and ample storage. There’s plenty of room for a workshop, darkroom, or art studio. A roof solar array provides energy, and there’s an elevator from the basement to the guest house. Outside, if riding appeals, there’s plenty of room for horses, too.

This contemporary estate is exquisitely outfitted, indoors and out. Security cameras, 19 in all, are cloud-connected and controlled. Excellent schools nearby. Clean lines, simple luxury. This property is perfectly designed for this premiere location: the home shows off the landscape, and the landscape elevates the home to perfection. Just add your favorite soundtrack and a bottle of Dom Perignon!
