For the first time, The Legacy Chateau comes to market. Custom-built and held by one family from the very start, this gated French Country estate sits on more than two private acres above the Sacramento River, with river views and private access to the Sacramento River Trail.Iron gates open to a motor court and a stone-and-slate facade softened by climbing ivy. Inside, the grand foyer rises around patterned stone floors and a sweeping curved staircase, made for wedding-day photos, holiday portraits and the everyday walk down to breakfast.Few private homes in Northern California offer a room like the ballroom. Parquet floors, a fireplace and French doors create a light-filled stage for holiday parties, milestone birthdays, charity galas and corporate entertaining. The paneled formal dining room, with chandelier and plasterwork, connects to the kitchen, and the space between them makes a perfect staging area for caterers and hospitality prep.Daily life centers on the kitchen and sunlit breakfast room, with generous counter space and room for more than one cook. Quieter rooms balance the grand ones: a separate, dedicated office with timber library shelving, a paneled den with a stone hearth, and a living room that keeps the garden in view.Upstairs, the primary suite's long bank of windows looks over the pool, the river and the landscape. In all, the home offers 4 bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, including a generously sized suite and guest rooms.Outside, the pool, terraces, patios and decks look north and south along the river corridor, framed by curved stone balustrades, a garden fountain and mature trees. Morning runs on the River Trail begin steps away, with downtown Redding, the Sundial Bridge, Shasta Lake and Whiskeytown all within reach.A residence of this character rarely comes to market in Shasta County. A Legacy Chateau. One of One. One Residence. One Legacy.
