Where Architecture Meets Nature
Some residences are defined by their setting. Others by their architecture. At 825 White Oak Drive, the two are inseparable. Perched above the Valley of the Moon, this extraordinary residence enjoys a rare and commanding vantage toward the upper reaches of the valley. Designed by acclaimed architect Larry Simons, the home reflects his distinctive ability to bring architecture, landscape, and natural materials into a cohesive whole. The result is a residence of unmistakable permanence—warm, sophisticated, and deeply connected to its Sonoma County setting.
ResidenceCrafted with Warmth and Permanence
Inside, the craftsmanship is immediate and enduring. Native clear-heart redwood brings extraordinary warmth and richness to the interiors, complemented by the understated elegance of German white oak floors. Three natural granite fireplaces provide dramatic architectural anchors, while the gourmet kitchen combines elevated materials with the effortless functionality expected of a truly exceptional home.
Appointed with top of the line Gagganeau appliances and amenities, this kitchen boasts an elegant and robust setting for hosting upscale gatherings. Refined granite surfaces and custom cabinetry are anchored by a generous island that invites conversation as naturally as it supports chef-caliber preparation.

Downstairs, the residence takes an unexpected turn. A private office and game room unfolds around a dramatic glass-encased granite display wall, creating a striking architectural centerpiece that feels equal parts gallery, conversation piece, and private retreat.
Throughout 825 White Oak Drive, the materials are substantial, the craftsmanship is intentional, and the relationship to the landscape is unmistakable. This is not simply a home with a view—it is a singular Larry Simons residence, thoughtfully crafted for those who appreciate architecture, provenance, and the rare luxury of a home that could not exist anywhere else.
LOCATIONValley of the Moon Setting
Expansive views of the California oak-studded estate and the legendary Valley of the Moon draw the outdoors in—elevating each moment. Morning coffee becomes a quiet, meditative ritual. Preparations for the evening are set against a backdrop of changing light and landscape, transforming daily life into something elegant and extraordinary.
