No. 1 — $17,200,000 · 10271 W Loyola Dr, Los Altos Hills, California
The top sale of the week is a Los Altos Hills estate reached through two gated entrances. It sold for $17,200,000. The property spans two parcels and 2.25 acres, the largest lot among the five, and includes a main residence, a guest house and a pool house. Rick Bell Builders designed and built the main residence in 1992.
The two-story main home has six bedrooms, the most in this group, along with seven bathrooms, six full and one half, and 6,646 square feet of living space, also the largest. The interiors have high ceilings with coffered detailing, double crown molding and hardwood floors. A butler’s pantry serves the formal dining room. The living room has a dry bar and floor-to-ceiling windows, and French doors lead out to garden terraces. The kitchen is open to a family room with cathedral ceilings, skylights and a fireplace, and that room has French doors of its own to the grounds. The primary suite is on the first floor, with a gas fireplace and a walk-in closet.
A stone courtyard with fountains anchors the level grounds, which also have a greenhouse and a broad lawn. The heated pool has a black bottom, and there is a spa as well. For entertaining outdoors, the estate has a built-in barbecue and an outdoor fireplace. Parking is generous: an attached three-car garage, a detached two-car garage, a large motor court and electric-vehicle charging. Trails and the Los Altos Golf & Country Club are nearby.
The estate went under contract nine days after it was listed and sold $2.202 million above its asking price of $14.998 million. The Bogard-Tanigami Team of The Agency was the listing agent, and Heidi Herz of Golden Gate Sotheby’s International Realty represented the buyer.

Brizo faucets are used in the kitchen and in every bathroom. A covered porch and patio of 412 square feet adds room for entertaining outdoors, and the backyard is fenced.

No. 4 — $7,100,000 · 11571 Buena Vista Dr, Los Altos Hills, California
About 300 Pinot Noir and Chardonnay vines grow on this 2.05-acre Los Altos Hills estate, which sold for $7,100,000. The property looks out over San Francisco Bay and the city lights, and from nearly every room of the main home the view stretches from Yerba Buena Island to Moffett Field.
The Mediterranean-style main home was built in 1991. The estate has five bedrooms and six bathrooms, four full and two half, with 4,006 square feet of living space and a finished basement. Interiors in each of the buildings keep a rustic European character.
Beyond the main home are a separate one-bedroom cottage with a full kitchen and a converted barn. The barn now has a room used for winemaking or other work, a half-bath and a studio or office upstairs. An underground wine cellar stays cool naturally. Outside, a deck wraps around the main home with a hot tub and bay views, and crushed stone patios sit beside the vineyard. Olive and fruit trees grow on the grounds. There is a detached five-car garage, and the hiking trails of Foothill Park and Byrne Reserve are a few minutes away.
The estate went under contract five days after it was listed, the fastest of the week’s five sales, and sold just above its asking price of $7.095 million. Gary Campi of Golden Gate Sotheby’s International Realty was the listing agent, and Hong Xu of Marvel Realty represented the buyer.
