What's special

There is a quiet kind of luxury in having space - space to move, gather, create, and breathe. At Four Palms, that space is found in a way that is increasingly rare: 1.34 acres in the heart of Davis, where the rhythm of town life and the feeling of retreat exist side by side. Originally built in 1887 as part of one of Davis's early estates, the home carries forward a legacy of craftsmanship with first-growth redwood milled on site, custom plaster detailing, and gracious proportions. Thoughtfully restored and reimagined, it honors its Eastlake Victorian roots while introducing a refined European sensibility. Light fills the home. The kitchen, with its wall of windows overlooking the grounds, serves as a natural gathering place, finished with Lincoln Marble, unlacquered brass, and timeless European-inspired design. Throughout, curated interiors blend Farrow & Ball paint, Parisian wallpaper, and a thoughtful mix of antique and modern elements. Living spaces unfold with intention: a richly appointed office with built-ins, a dining room that doubles as a creative studio, and a luminous sunroom wrapped in garden views - ideal for work, reading, or a quiet retreat. Upstairs, four generous bedrooms and a flexible fifth bedroom or office support modern living, while a tucked-away attic offers a whimsical retreat for creativity, play, or quiet reflection. Outside, the property lives like a private park. Lush trees, expansive lawns, garden beds, a saltwater pool, sport court, workshop, barn, sheds, and a playhouse create an environment equally suited for entertaining, recreation, and everyday life. Beyond the curated grounds, a substantial rear meadow presents a rare opportunity for future expansion and additional amenities. Designed for both beauty and resilience, the estate includes a private water well, 9.5 kW owned solar system, and backup generator - offering an uncommon level of self-reliance and operational efficiency. Located within one of California's most bike-friendly and intellectually vibrant communities, Four Palms offers easy access to the Capitol Corridor rail line for convenient trips to the Bay Area, approximately an hour from San Francisco without traffic, and effortless proximity to Napa Valley, Lake Tahoe, and countless Northern California destinations. Historic yet forward-looking, expansive yet deeply comfortable, Four Palms is an invitation to live differently.
