Shady Canyon

As the guarded gates of Irvine’s exclusive Shady Canyon silently close behind you, a sense of calm takes hold on the approach home to 60 Golden Eagle, a phenomenal custom estate without compare in Orange County. Private gates introduce the 1.42-acre property, which welcomes spectacular unobstructed golf course, evening-light and hill views. Enjoy ample privacy and extensive space for a front courtyard, a reflecting pool, limestone terraces, large rolling lawns, open seating areas, a grand scale open-air fireplace, a motorcourt for guest parking, meandering walkways, and lush and mature landscaping including olive, Italian cypress and oak trees. An indoor pool and spa pavilion is ideal for year-round entertaining and boasts a pool with custom mosaic design. Equally impressive, the residence’s interior is refined with limestone flooring, Venetian plaster, gorgeous lighting, custom millwork, barrel and coffered ceilings, an elevator, custom-carved marble fireplaces, and extensive use of handcrafted stone, wood and metal. Approximately 15,088 square feet, the luxurious villa reveals seven ensuite bedrooms, eleven opulent baths, multiple indoor/outdoor areas for entertaining, a 15-seat theater, a wine room with storage for approximately 1,000 bottles, a tower library and garage parking for five. Welcoming to all, the magazine-worthy kitchen hosts a large island, maple cabinetry, an oversized pantry with custom pull-out shelving, a fully equipped butler’s pantry, a spacious breakfast nook that opens to the backyard and cooking pavilions, and high-end Sub-Zero and Viking appliances. The primary suite pampers with a fireplace, gilded custom casework, a marble steam shower, jetted tub, and a magnificent custom closet with enclosed cabinetry, glass doors and a large marble island. Spanning two levels, a handsome wood-paneled office suite opens to the terrace with a stairway to grounds below. Downstairs, in the subterranean level of the residence, awaits an ensuite bedroom, a separate entrance, a wet bar and a kitchenette. Behind the scenes, high-tech amenities include a DSC security system, a Lutron lighting system and Crestron home automation.
