The Carriage House This beautiful home, originally designed by renowned San Francisco architect Willis Polk, was constructed as the carriage house for the Blaney Estate in 1917. Nestled among the majestic oaks in this prestigious neighborhood in the heart of Saratoga, this one-plus acre property offers the opportunity to own a piece of California history while enjoying modern amenities and design. This 5 bedroom, 4.5 bathroom, 6,100Âą square foot home expresses an understated elegance honoring the architectural character and integrity of the original carriage house.
Classic, Elegant, Refined Custom Roder doors and windows were designed to fill the original Carriage House bays, capturing vast amounts of natural light and openness. The generous use of glass allows the interior living space to seamlessly flow into the various outdoor living spaces. A multizoned radiant heat system warms the elegant travertine floors, maintaining a consistently pleasant temperature in cooler months, while dual zoned air conditioning cools the home in warmer months.
Outdoor Living The exterior provides many areas for gathering, whether for outdoor dining, roasting marshmallows around the fire pit, or playing a competitive game of Bocce Ball. There are multiple spaces artistically designed with curved, cushioned stone benches, a metal fire wall, decorative fountains, lighted majestic oak trees and outdoor speakers. Drought-resistant native plantings offer diversity in form, color and texture, and enrich the expansive outdoor spaces.
Ideal for Entertaining The spectacular kitchen is the heart of this home! Two refrigerators, a 48� commercial-grade range, a generous center island, beautiful custom Plato cabinetry and a large butler’s pantry make this the perfect kitchen for entertaining! The stunning light fixtures and substantial picture window add warmth and brightness to this inviting space. The outdoor kitchen functions as an extension of the main kitchen with a Mugniani pizza oven, large BBQ, side burners, warming drawer, refrigerator and a deep, single bowl sink.
Charming Guest House The 825Âą square foot guest house is ideal for live-in family members, nannies, or short-term guests! It was built with the same high quality materials and attention to detail as the main house and features a fully-appointed kitchen, spacious living area with built-in cabinetry, large bedroom, beautiful bathroom, and laundry facilities. The space is warm and inviting with an abundance of natural light. Whether indoors or outdoors, the Carriage House is a fabulous home for entertaining guests or spending quality time with family.
