Property Description

Inspired by the timeless estates and mountain retreats of the French Alps, The Bennington Estate brings Old World European elegance to the spectacular natural setting of the Sierra Nevada. Nestled among mature trees along the Browns Creek corridor within the gated community of Saint James Village, this extraordinary residence is a celebration of architectural character, exceptional craftsmanship, and mountain living. Conceived by its original owners following extensive travels through France and designed in the tradition of renowned architect Jack Arnold, the estate blends the warmth and romance of French architecture with the substance and natural materials of an Alpine mountain retreat. Spanning more than 7,000 square feet, the residence showcases extensive Arkansas bluestone, rich mahogany floors and staircases, custom cabinetry and millwork, refined smooth-finish walls, Waterworks fixtures, and hydronic radiant heating throughout both levels. Every detail reflects an enduring commitment to quality, comfort, and craftsmanship. Five bedrooms, multiple ensuite accommodations, a private library, loft, and generous gathering spaces provide an elegant yet inviting environment for everyday living and entertaining. Gas fireplaces and beautifully appointed interiors bring warmth and intimacy to the home's substantial scale. Beyond the residence, mature landscaping, expansive lawns, a rose garden, and extensive stonework create a serene, established mountain estate. Covered outdoor living spaces overlook the wooded surroundings, while nearby trails and Browns Creek connect the property to the natural beauty of the Sierra. A concrete tile roof, copper gutters, three-car garage, and welcoming motor court complement the estate's enduring architecture. Significant recent investments in mechanical systems, insulation, landscaping, and fire mitigation reflect thoughtful stewardship of this exceptional property. Ideally situated between Reno and Lake Tahoe, with convenient access to Mt. Rose skiing, golf, hiking, and year-round mountain recreation, The Bennington Estate offers a distinctive expression of French Alpine living. Old World elegance. Alpine character. An extraordinary Sierra Nevada estate.
