120 Golden Hills Dr, Portola Valley

Blending seamlessly into the natural beauty of Portola Valley, this striking new home with all-redwood exterior beautifully complements its surroundings with towering oaks and views of the western hills. Secluded at the end of a long driveway on the top of a gentle knoll, the distinctive architecture presents clean lines that follow angular transoms atop full height windows and sliding glass doors, achieving a balance of light and airiness and allowing interaction and viewing of the outdoors. Numerous decks with wrought iron railings enhance the sleek, modern styling and extend the living spaces outdoors amidst meadows and native plantings that create an organic chemistry with the home. The outside beauty transcends naturally to the inside where high vaulted ceilings are paneled in redwood, floors are finished in richly stained, hand-hewn cherry wood, and verdant views are captured from every room.

The multi-level floor plan spans approximately 6,900 square feet of luxury living. A spacious limestone finished foyer ascends to a dramatic living room with fireplace and banks of concealed cabinetry that create a custom wall shared with the elevated formal dining room. On the opposite side, a library or office can be concealed from the living room and shares the towering vaulted ceiling height paneled in redwood. At the center of the home, a spacious family room, masterfully designed custom kitchen with European cabinetry, and casual dining area are crowned by one of two signature skylights that fully span the ceiling’s cathedral vault. Beyond, 4 bedrooms offer luxurious retreats each with en suite bath, while the master suite is privately positioned in a separate cantilevered wing adjacent to the library. Adding to the accommodations is a full lower level with significant and versatile recreation space, full bar, a dedicated home theatre, and wine cellar.

Designed by renowned architect Robert Stoecker and built by Brooke Shaw Builder with uncompromised quality and exceptional materials, this home also benefits from a full spectrum of state-of-the-art technology for audio, video, and Internet connectivity. Topping it all off is the home’s premier location on just over two acres in the coveted Westridge area with access to excellent Portola Valley schools.
