Property Description
For the First Time Ever Offered for Sale- The Ballmer Estate in prestigious Skyline Country Club Estates! Born in Europe, refined in California, and shaped by a life well lived across some of the world’s most extraordinary locations, the original owner of this residence possessed an intuitive sense of design and a vision far ahead of her time. On one of Skyline’s premier hilltop parcels, she created her dream home—now known as The Ballmer Estate—and entrusted architect Bill Gansline to bring it to life. The result is a masterwork of refined, understated luxury designed for effortless entertaining and casual daily life. Positioned on a rare elevated hill-top lot, the home delivers commanding views in every direction—dramatic Catalina Mountain vistas from the front and
Outdoor living is exceptional in every way. All main rooms in the house open to the expansive covered terrace overlooking the twinkling city lights below and the sparkling pool and spa area. Off the kitchen is a covered grill area for the few days a year you might get wet grilling outside here. Mature landscaping, peaceful fountains, and unmatched views complete a setting that feels both timeless and magical and instantly transports you to Santa Barbara or the Amalfi coast. The oversized workshop and adjacent storage room off the garage present a straightforward opportunity to create an attached guest casita with private entrance and side parking-easily converting this into a 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom home without disrupting the existing floorplan. Perfect as a primary residence or a low-maintenance lock-and-leave retreat, the home benefits from Skyline Country Club’s 24/7 manned gate and active patrol, providing added peace of mind. Lovingly maintained by its original owner until the age of 98, this residence stands as a rare fusion of European design & class, California casual elegance, and desert Southwest architecture & influence decades ahead of its time and only improving with age.
