Perched atop one of the highest hills in Atascadero, this grand estate was custom-built by a disabled veteran and has passed through only two owners in its lifetime. Just 4 minutes from Highway 101 yet completely worlds apart, a private drive winds through 2.3 oak-canopied acres to a hilltop sanctuary with only one neighboring home in sight. From here, sweeping panoramic views of Atascadero and the rolling wine country hills of California's Central Coast unfold in every direction. A fountain welcomes you at the entry alongside 8-foot Mahogany doors opening directly into a breathtaking great room where 20-foot ceilings, arched clerestory windows, and a winding staircase with wrought iron railings make an immediate and lasting impression.
Designed for both lavish entertaining and comfortable everyday living, the heart of the home features a full wet bar, open living space, and a chef's kitchen outfitted with a 7-burner stove and double ovens. The great room flows seamlessly through French doors to an exceptional outdoor retreat: a 9-foot deep lap pool, hot tub, mist area, and outdoor shower, all powered by 100 fully paid solar panels. A private downstairs bedroom suite offers ideal accommodations for guests, while the formal dining room, den, and laundry room complete the main level.
Upstairs, the master suite is a one-of-a-kind sanctuary with a private balcony showcasing the most breathtaking panoramic views of the Central Coast wine country hillsides, a scene that changes beautifully with every season. The suite also includes a dedicated office overlooking the living area, custom walk-in closet, and spa-inspired bath with a jetted tub and steam shower. A home gym and two additional guest rooms round out the upper level, while a 3-car garage, dual-zone climate control, and an utterly private, tree-canopied hilltop setting with a private overlook make 5255 Escarpa Ave one of the Central Coast's most compelling offerings.
