Inside a $17.9 Million Modern Farmhouse That Captures the Best of Napa Valley
Overview
There are luxury homes that impress through size, and there are those that leave a lasting impression because of where they belong. This newly completed modern farmhouse in Napa Valley achieves both. Set across 6.7 acres in the prestigious Oak Knoll Ave, the 8,600 square-foot estate embraces one of California’s most celebrated wine regions with architecture that feels entirely connected to the landscape. As Jon Grauman explains, “This is what it’s all about. This is what you move here for. It’s heaven.” From the moment you arrive, it becomes clear that this is not simply a luxury residence but an invitation to experience Napa’s celebrated way of life.

Living Among the Vineyards
The setting is the property’s greatest luxury. Surrounded by vineyards in every direction, the estate enjoys uninterrupted views across the valley floor with the Mayacamas Mountains to the west and the Vaca Mountains to the east. Four acres of mature Cabernet vines belong to the property itself, offering owners the opportunity to produce their own wine or contribute fruit to a local winery. Jon captures the appeal perfectly: “People come up to Napa because they want to feel like they’re part of the land. They want to get outside the city. This is your own true farm-to-table experience. It is the dream when you’re living up here.” Everyday life unfolds in constant dialogue with the vineyards, making the landscape central to the experience of living here.
Modern Farmhouse Architecture with Timeless Appeal
The home’s exterior gives rustic warmth with contemporary precision. Dark stained cedar, rubble limestone veneer and sleek metal roofing create a refined interpretation of the modern farmhouse aesthetic that has become synonymous with Napa Valley.
A pair of century-old olive trees frame the entrance, introducing the property’s sense of permanence. Expansive floor to ceiling glass windows establishes a visual connection straight through to the gardens beyond. Imported Italian pergolas extend the architecture outdoors, automatically adapting to changing weather while integrating heating, lighting and fire features that encourage year-round entertaining. Every material has been selected to complement the surrounding vineyards.
Resort Living Designed for Every Season
Outdoor living is treated with the same importance as the interiors. A 60-foot swimming pool, spa, multiple fire pit lounges and a generous outdoor kitchen transform the grounds into a private resort.
The detached cabana introduces another layer of flexibility, serving as both an entertaining pavilion and a guest house with two independent guest suites. Whether hosting intimate dinners or large celebrations, every outdoor space is positioned to enjoy uninterrupted views across the vineyards and surrounding mountain ranges. It is a setting that celebrates Napa’s climate as much as its scenery.
Open Spaces, Effortless Living
Inside, expansive Reynaers sliding doors from Belgium dissolve the boundary between indoors and outdoors, filling the home with natural light and opening every room onto the landscape. A dramatic glass wine cellar forms the centrepiece of the main living space, highlighting the property’s connection to wine culture.
The soaring vaulted ceilings, sculptural staircase and generous entertaining areas create openness, but it is the home’s practicality that impresses most. Jon notes, “A lot of houses, particularly new construction, are designed for the way they look, not so much the way that they live. This is how a house is going to live.” It is an observation that perfectly summarizes the design philosophy throughout the property.
A Kitchen Created for Entertaining
The kitchen embodies the thoughtful design approach found throughout the home, everyday practicality with understated elegance. A large central island sits at the heart of the kitchen. Accordion windows create an effortless connection to the outdoor barbecue and dining spaces, ensuring the kitchen extends naturally onto the surrounding terraces.
Fully equipped with premium Miele appliances, the main kitchen is complemented by a professional chef’s kitchen that allows large-scale catering without disrupting the primary living spaces.
Just outside sits a private vegetable garden, highlighting the home’s authentic farm-to-table lifestyle and strengthening its relationship with the surrounding landscape.
Two Primary Suites, One Exceptional View
The home provides two equally impressive primary suites. The ground floor suite enjoys direct access to private terraces, vineyard views and the spa.
The upper suite elevates the experience with panoramic vistas stretching across the valley. Jon describes the outlook with genuine enthusiasm: “The views get a little bit bigger. Everything gets a little bit more open and dramatic.”
Both suites feature elegant limestone bathrooms, Taj Mahal stone countertops and generous dressing rooms that reinforce the understated luxury found throughout the home.
Spaces Designed Around Lifestyle
The upper level demonstrates how thoughtfully the property adapts to modern living. An open landing can become a home office or informal lounge, and a dedicated gym enjoys sunrise views across the Vaca Mountain Range.
Completing the floor is a spacious recreation room beneath dramatic pitched ceilings, positioned above the vineyards and filled with natural light. As Jon remarks, “This is just your fun zone.” Whether envisioned as a games room, family retreat or entertaining space, it echoes the home’s ability to adapt effortlessly to different lifestyles.
The Napa Valley Dream
This remarkable estate succeeds because it understands that luxury is more than exceptional finishes or spacious layout. It is about creating an experience that feels inseparable from its location. Every architectural decision strengthens the connection between the home, the vineyard, and the landscape, allowing owners to embrace the rhythms of Napa Valley while enjoying the comfort of a skillfully executed modern residence. In a region celebrated for its beauty, wine and hospitality, this home captures all three with remarkable clarity.
