Step into Palladian wonder at Villa Demeter, an estate designed by James Beauchamp Alexander. His love for classical architecture was sparked in Northern Italy during WWII and honed at the the Royal Academy in Copenhagen. Bringing his vision to Sonoma County, Villa Demeter exemplifies Palladian design, known for its symmetry, balance, and elegance. The estate's symmetrical facade, grand arched French door, and faux columns evoke a Venetian villa. Named after the goddess of the harvest, Villa Demeter blends harmoniously with its acre of landscaped grounds, featuring statues, a koi pond, and a seasonal stream. Inside, soaring ceilings, French doors, and slate floors keep the home naturally cool. The living room boasts columns, a wood-burning fireplace, and slate floors, while the renovated kitchen with white cabinetry connects to a an elegant dining room with an antique French chandelier. For cooking essentials there is also a pantry. With two ensuite bedrooms, an artist's studio, and an Orientalia gazebo, Villa Demeter is a rare fusion of old-world charm and modern living. Available for the first time since its construction, this timeless villa is not to be missed.
