SHERWOOD, OR--(Marketwire - October 13, 2010) - A four-bedroom, five-bath estate located in Oregon's Wine Country will sell at real estate auction on October 28. Villa Pietra, which sits on 20 acres in the Willamette Valley, was last listed at $6.95 million but will have an opening bid starting at $2.25 million on auction day. J. P. King Auction Company, the nation's leading real estate auction marketing firm, will conduct the sale.
Villa Pietra's construction includes a gourmet kitchen, two master suites, a two-story children's bedroom and a 400-bottle climate-controlled wine cellar.
"The ambiance of the home really makes it special," said Butch Paulson, the home's owner. "It's private, peaceful and beautiful. Every part of the house has been finished to the finest detail, and the grounds and wildlife make it a relaxing environment with a view."
The Tuscon-inspired home has an exterior accented with European hornbeam, lavender and rosemary along the driveway and a cobblestone courtyard draped with wisteria. With an original construction cost of over $10 million, the yards also include an equestrian facility and riding arenas, a 90-foot lap pool with extensive patio and several fish-filled ponds, streams, waterfalls and gardens.
"This is a magnificent property," said Craig King, president and CEO of J. P. King Auction Company. "With an opening bid starting at $2.25 million, it is truly a value to its next buyer. Such a beautiful home in the heart of Willamette Valley is a great offer."
