The late San Francisco Giants owner’s Napa Valley home is on the market for $13 million

The beautiful Napa Valley residence of late San Francisco giants owner Peter Magowan has been put on the market for $13 million – seven years after the sports giant died of cancer.

Magowan, who passed away on January 27, 2019 at the age of 76, purchased the beautiful 50-acre estate in Helena, CA in 1992, which served as the primary residence for the businessman and his wife. Debby Magowanfor many years.

However, following the death of her husband, Debby has decided to say goodbye to the estate, which boasts 15 hectares of planted vines, including Sauvignon Blanc, Cabernet and Petite Verdeaux, as well as an expansive main residence of more than 7,100 square meters.

The home comes complete with seven bedrooms, six full bathrooms and two half bathrooms. Originally built in 1990, it features high ceilings, a bar, a resort-style pool, a hot tub, three fireplaces and panoramic mountain views.

In recent years, the home has been upgraded with a variety of modern amenities, including a smart home system and various infrastructural developments to allow the home to function in a more sustainable, environmentally friendly way.

According to the listing, the home was “designed for both leisurely living and large-scale entertaining,” with the description adding, “The property features expansive indoor and outdoor living spaces, a resort-style pool and spa, a large outdoor kitchen pavilion and a dedicated catering kitchen, all surrounded by manicured gardens, lawns and vineyard views.”

The property has been created with the utmost privacy in mind and is accessed via a long, enclosed driveway that offers fantastic views of the vineyard. You slowly climb up a hill to the accessible Mediterranean-style home, which is beautifully framed by lush trees.

A water feature in the center of a circular driveway helps set the tone for the luxury amenities to come.

The grand entrance is given a luxurious touch thanks to a sparkling chandelier, before opening into the living room with high ceilings, exposed wooden beams, modern lighting and a fireplace.

French doors open onto a central courtyard, complete with a shaded seating area that is the perfect place to relax with a cup of coffee in the morning, or treat guests to a glass of wine in the evening.

That space, however, is one of many living areas, which also includes a wood-paneled library that offers an incredibly cozy aesthetic and also features its own fireplace and access to the backyard.

Custom built-in cabinets cover the walls, providing the perfect place to store an extensive collection of books.

The chef’s kitchen has a farmhouse feel, complete light wood cabinets, a breakfast nook and state-of-the-art appliances.

Huge windows fill the space with light, while a shared barn door provides access to the backyard – and another outdoor area, which is equipped with a large dining table.

The master bedroom offers enough space for a king-size bed, multiple windows and a cozy fireplace, while the ensuite bathroom is complete with a large marble sink and a bathtub.

There is also a games room with an air hockey table, plenty of seating options and various other games.

Moving outside, there is a patio with a seating area that overlooks the sparkling pool and lush greenery.

Elsewhere on the property you will find a rose garden, several trees and a tennis court. Flowers are found throughout the landscaped garden, adorning idyllic arches and growing on the side of the house, giving the property a truly romantic atmosphere.

A huge swimming pool, complete with multiple sun lounger areas, is equipped with its own outdoor bar and kitchen, while a separate pool house provides another space for guests to relax.

The pool house is currently furnished as an additional living room, complete with its own kitchen and fireplace.

There is also a large covered terrace with multiple seating areas, as well as lighting fixtures that ensure it can be used all day and night.

A tennis court and viewing area complete the impressive outdoor amenities.

The listing adds, “With its mix of lifestyle amenities, agricultural value and turnkey functionality, the estate offers an attractive option for a full-time residence, a weekend retreat or an old Napa Valley complex.”

Magowan and a group of investors purchased the San Francisco Giants from Bob Lurie in 1993 for $100 million, preventing the team from moving to Florida.

Shortly after taking ownership of the team, Magowan signed as a free agent Barry Bonds to a six-year contract worth $43.75 million, which was the most in baseball history at the time.

He also led the effort to build what is now known as Oracle Park, which opened in 2000.

Magowan served as managing general partner for 16 seasons until his retirement in 2008.
