Built in 1925, “Bella Vista,”is one of the original Pebble Beach estates immersed in tradition, and inspired by artists, writers, and railroad and steel industrialists. Having had their pick of locations, these early visionaries of Pebble Beach chose this magnificent setting, perched atop legendary “Strawberry Hill,” which is widely known to be the sunniest and most coveted locations of Pebble Beach. "Strawberry Hill," aptly named for its history of preferred weather, rich soil, lush orchards, and flourishing strawberry fields is also known for its jaw-dropping views of Carmel Beach, Big Sur and Point Lobos to the south and west and north to Stillwater Cove toward Cypress Point. 

To this day, this gated, park-like 2.6 acres boasts prolific cutting gardens, vegetable gardens, mature landscape, terraced gardens with fruit trees, and two of the oldest and grandest cypress trees in Pebble Beach. Uniquely, Bella Vista claims one of the very few nationally registered monarch butterfly way stations. There is always something to do at the property including a hot tub with panoramic views, a half court basketball court, bocce ball, a putting green, sprawling terraces to sit and relax by a fire or entertain, three fire pit areas, and walking trails around the property. These grounds are private, picturesque and incomparable in Pebble Beach. 

Inspired by the California Spanish revival movement and architects like George Washington Smith, Lewis Hobart and Wallace Neff, this beautiful estate exudes character, charm and authentic design beckoning indoor and outdoor entertaining and casual elegant living. Renovated and perfected for modern living, this compound enjoys an 8200+ square foot main house with five bedrooms, six full baths and two half baths. Additionally, there is an elegant, private 2 bed/2 bath guest house set amongst the cypress trees and overlooking the rose gardens, with a full kitchen, living room with fireplace and private deck terrace. A second separate 1 bed, 1 bath guest cottage with stunning ocean views and a full kitchen brings the total living spaces to over 10,500 sq ft, plus a two-car garage, once a horse and buggy barn. 

Additional amenities of the main house include formal dining room with ocean and beach views, executive office/library with fireplace and French doors that open to a putting green and gardens. The elegant family room with wood burning fireplace and huge ocean views, provides the perfect space to gather. The gourmet chef’s kitchen is perfectly positioned to serve family and guests on a small and large scale with butler’s pantry and easy access to the 1500 bottle wine cellar and tasting room. Stroll upstairs to discover the bar and billiards room with extraordinary ocean views and world class sound system and its own viewing balcony. 

Centrally located in Pebble Beach, Bella Vista is convenient to everything Pebble Beach has to offer while being uniquely private, most don’t even know it's there.  This estate provides the perfect combination of luxury and elegance with intimate and large scale entertaining spaces to be enjoyed for generations to come.  A legacy home in one of the most beautiful locations in the world.
