Carpenter Hill Vineyard Estate

Lot Description

Welcome to Carpenter Hill Estate and Vineyard. Centrally located between the San Francisco Bay Area and the Pacific Northwest Metropolitan areas of Portland and Seattle, this magnificent estate provides you the opportunity to enjoy luxury, refreshing rural lifestyle, and charming small-town culture. The vineyard setting offers spectacular views, natural grandeur, and convenience, while the custom estate home captures the supreme style of the Mediterranean.

This 17-acre property features an estate home, farm manager's house, shop, private gated entry, 13-acre vineyard, and is fully deer fenced. The rod-iron gate opens to a paved drive that meanders up through the vineyard to the homesite. From here, the view from the estate home is breathtaking, encompassing the Cascade mountain range, the lush valley, vineyard, and city lights below. Situated amid other estate properties, orchards, and vineyards, this property sits in a prized location.

The estate home was custom built in 2006 by Michael Pagnini and features a beautiful design, with impeccable attention to detail in architectural style and finishes. The beautiful arched entry door is flanked by Tuscan columns. Inside, the tiled foyer opens into a spacious living area that boasts over 20-foot ceilings, hardwood floors, and an attractive gas fireplace framed by custom cabinets. Floor to ceiling windows capture the breathtaking views, with sliding glass doors welcoming you to the large covered terrace and an expansive outdoor entertaining area. The outdoor space has an infinity pool, hot tub, stamped concrete, and pavers, as well as a charming lower sitting area overlooking the vineyard.

The gourmet kitchen features beautiful wood cabinetry, granite countertops, genuine hammered-copper sink, and raised bar. The quality stainless steel appliances include a 48 Viking range with double oven, 6 burners, griddle, and custom built-in hood, plus a sub-Zero refrigerator. The cabinet-faced dishwasher and trash compactor blend into the artful design. A built-in hutch and an additional peninsula island, with seeded glass inlay cabinets, partially separate the kitchen from the living room, allowing light to circulate and creating an open flow between these two elegant living spaces. The breakfast nook is spacious, surrounded by large windows with inspiring panoramic views. As a bonus, the hidden closet in the kitchen provides additional storage space for essentials.

Adjacent to the kitchen you will find a custom, climate-controlled wine cellar with beautiful built-in wood wine racks and plenty of space for storing your favorite wines and vintages. The formal dining room features hardwood floors, a tryptic window, and ample room for large gatherings and special occasions.

The west wing of the home includes the master suite, office, and guest bathroom. The office provides custom floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, hardwood floors, and large closet. Across the hall is a full guest bath with travertine tile flooring, granite countertops, custom tile and glass shower, and direct access to the back patio.

Continuing down the hall, through French doors, leads to the expansive master suite. The suite is large and airy, filled with wonderful natural light. The wrap-around windows in the octagonal nook provide both stunning views and great natural light, and is the perfect space for a generous sitting area or a work-out space. Dual closets with custom built-in shelving allow for plenty of storage and functionality. The luxurious master bathroom includes dual antiqued-wood vanities, custom stone counters, and a large jacuzzi tub. The tiled walk-in shower is spacious and wonderfully relaxing with its rainshower head and easy-care design.

A well-appointed laundry room rounds out the main floor and provides access to the exterior courtyard. Upstairs you will find the second and third bedrooms which are connected by a jack and jill bathroom, which boasts a jacuzzi tub, glass-enclosed and tile-surrounded shower, and private water closet. Every room in the home offers unique elegance and extraordinary views. Additionally, a high efficiency Trane Heat Pump with UV air filters was added to the home.

Across from the estate home is a detached two-car garage and a charming guest suite with full bathroom. The guest suite could also be an ideal gym, home office, or hobby room. The area between the buildings forms a natural courtyard, providing another great outdoor living space, with pavers and landscaping. The pavers continue around the southwest of the home, leading to a sunset pergola.

The original dwelling at Carpenter Hill Vineyard, located near the south east corner of the property and accessed by separate entrance, was built in 1917. Though it has been updated in recent years, this lovely dwelling still brims with the historic charm of a landmark home. Recent updates include exterior paint, flooring throughout, foundation stabilization by Terra Firma, along with a Trane electric heat pump. The living space features a fireplace and opens to the dining area. The charming farmhouse kitchen features white cabinetry and a breakfast nook. The home has two bedroom suites with a full bathroom and a spacious laundry room. A full unfinished basement and a detached 3 car garage provide additional storage.

Now encompassing 13 +/- acres of the property, the vineyard is mature and producing a variety of wine grapes, including Syrah, Petite Syrah, Merlot, and Mourvedre. In 2018, the owners added the small component of Mourvedre to expand the wine styles. Irrigation is provided through the Talent Irrigation District and has been recently updated with a new drip system designed specifically for this site. The vineyard also has a dedicated electrical service separate from either home.

The 1,200 square foot shop has two sliding doors, a concrete floor, water, and electricity. This is a great work space and storage area for farm equipment, and features its own access from the road.

This incredible property provides easy access to Ashland, historic Jacksonville, and Medford, which offers numerous medical facilities, an international airport, and superstores. Southern Oregon is known for world renowned attractions such as the Rogue River, Crater Lake National Park, Mount McLoughlin, and many more recreational opportunities. With a magnificent Tuscan-style home, additional second home, and the established vineyard, Carpenter Hill Estate and Vineyard is a one-of-a-kind opportunity.
