A piece of Northern California’s Arts and Crafts history is up for sale near the town of Benbow, about 200 miles north of San Francisco. Redwood Grove Estate was designed by architect Julia Morgan, who is also known for creating the opulent Hearst Castle for publishing magnate William Randolph Hearst. Morgan—the first woman to graduate from the École des Beaux-Arts and the first female architect licensed in California—led a prolific career spanning hundreds of notable public and private structures.

Completed in 1926, the home was originally commissioned by San Francisco Hotel heiress Margaret Stewart. The current owners purchased the property in 2000 and spent over three years restoring original details while modernizing some living areas. Spanning over 5,000 square feet, the residence features three expansive bedrooms, all with en suite bathrooms, as well as a sunny family room and a 1,500-bottle wine cellar.

In addition to the main house, the property also comes with two detached structures: a 2,000-square-foot guesthouse and a one-bedroom apartment over the garage. Outside, the 2.58-acre lot borders a river and offers several wooded areas, as well as a vegetable garden and orchard.

The home is currently listed for $5,000,000, and it comes with all of the furnishings. The asking price takes into account both residential and commercial opportunities, as the home occasionally hosts public tours and is licensed for up to 50 events per year. Keep scrolling to see more.
