Château de la Vue – A Private Sanctuary of Unrivaled Luxury

Elevated above the charming town of Los Gatos, Château de la Vue commands an extraordinary 2-acre estate where absolute privacy, unrivaled security, and breathtaking panoramic views converge. From the eventful lights of Silicon Valley to the iconic skyline of San Francisco, the vistas from this property are simply without equal.

Despite its secluded grandeur, the estate is conveniently located just around 1.5 miles from downtown Los Gatos, offering a seamless balance between serene retreat and everyday accessibility. A grand motor court framed by lush, park-like grounds introduces the main residence, setting an unmistakable tone of timeless sophistication.

At the heart of the estate, the 7,292± sq. ft. main residence embodies refined luxury and architectural excellence, offering 5 bedrooms (including a richly appointed executive office) and 5.5 bathrooms. Expansive formal and informal living spaces flow effortlessly to outdoor entertaining terraces, thoughtfully designed to celebrate the home’s commanding hilltop setting.

Enhancing the estate’s remarkable versatility, a 2,240± sq. ft. guest residence stands independently — accessed via its own private gated driveway for complete autonomy and discretion. Artfully designed across two expansive levels, each floor includes its own kitchen, allowing the structure to flex as two distinct 1,120± sq. ft. guest homes, or maintained as a combined residence with an upper-level entertainment retreat — perfect for a private theater, gym, or pool lounge.

Anchoring the outdoor experience, a spectacular 75’ x 22’ Olympic-length lap pool and spa are ideally positioned - creating an atmosphere of true resort-caliber tranquility and grandeur.

Importantly, an estate of this size and stature is now extraordinarily rare to replicate.

Modern building regulations, floor area ratio (FAR) restrictions, and hillside development limitations make it nearly impossible today to construct a new 7,292± sq. ft. residence above ground on a property like this.

Château de la Vue represents an opportunity that simply cannot be duplicated.
