In the heart of Granite Bay, where luxury estates dot the landscape, a newly built modern compound at 9070 Chelshire Estates Court pushes the community’s high-end market to new heights.
Asking $8.2 million, the single-level estate, spread across nearly four gated acres, has the potential to set a Granite Bay sales record if it closes anywhere near the listing price. The MLS record for Granite Bay stands at $6.15 million, set in June 2022 for 4869 Cavitt Ranch Place, according to Sacramento appraiser and housing market analyst Ryan Lundquist.
Granite Bay is 26 miles northeast of Sacramento.
“This isn’t just a residence — it’s an experience,” reads the Chelshire Estates Court property listing.
Modern design
The main house spans 8,800 square feet of single-level living, with four en suite bedrooms and seven bathrooms.
“There are a lot of mansions for sale in Granite Bay, Loomis, but it’s really hard to find a single-story, true multigenerational (estate) that’s not a 20-year-old design,” listing agent Christa Proctor of eXp Luxury said about what differentiates the home from other high-end properties. “The interior, and even the exterior, is a modern design. That’s really hard to find.”
The detached guest house is anything but an afterthought. “Talk about everyone having their own space,” Proctor said.
Equally impressive as a fully independent luxury residence, the guest quarters unfold across 2,247 square feet. The kitchen is well appointed with a large island and high-end appliances. Guests can enjoy their own private backyard and patio, as well as a two-car attached garage.
Proctor calls the estate’s style “transitional,” merging traditional ceilings with modern steel and glass to create a sophisticated, balanced and comfortable ambiance. Hawks Construction and Lugo Design brought the seller’s vision to life.
“Of all the mansions, most of them you’re going to want to spend millions updating them to modern amenities, modern aesthetic. This one has it all. It was built in 2022 — fairly new, single story. You don’t have a lot of those, especially in Granite Bay,” she said.
Stunning primary suite
In the main house, every bedroom has its own walk-in closet and spa-like bath. The primary suite stuns with a secluded patio, private outdoor access to a reflection pool and a bathroom that echoes a luxury wellness retreat.
“It’s beautiful,” Proctor said. “You just want to be in there. The stand-alone bathtub, it’s like that artistic statement of the whole bathroom.”
The heart of the interior beats in the two full kitchens. The first, a gourmet kitchen with Thermador appliances and a waterfall-edge island, is the centerpiece of an open-concept main living area. The second—what you might call a “dirty kitchen”—is actually a full culinary studio in its own right, hidden discreetly behind the main kitchen. That is what professional-scale dining and entertaining looks like.
Indeed, entertainment is paramount at the estate. An enormous custom movie theater makes a strong impression — with a bar, mini kitchen and sizable lounge area off to one side.
“Of all the homes I’ve ever seen, personally, it’s really rare to have a theater room set up where you really do feel like you are at a miniature version of a movie theater,” Proctor said. “It’s got the concessions area — so comfortable, very roomy. You know when you go to Studio Movie Grill, you have that lounge out in front? You literally have a mini version of Studio Movie Grill in the theater. So if people want to just sit and visit, there’s that room for that.”
Property rivals private resorts
Outside, the property rivals a private resort. The jaw-dropping pool is highlighted by fire elements, spectacular lighting and waterfalls. Set on multiple levels, the pool area begins with a reflecting pond, cascading to a large spa, then an infinity pool, and finally a lower pool — all crowned by a tubular waterslide. The backyard showstopper was designed by Nor-Cal Pool Productions.
“Mike Bradley from Nor-Cal Pool Productions is very renowned. He puts a lot of love and passion into everything he does,” Proctor said. “So you see it demonstrated here, from the lighting, the water features, everything flows so seamlessly.”
The estate’s outdoor amenities read like a luxury resort brochure: dual pools, fire pit, putting course, in-ground trampoline, sports court, complete outdoor kitchen with a commercial-grade pizza oven, and an Instagram-worthy wall rising above the water features, a perfect spot for group shots against the sunset.
An elegant bar adjacent to the main living area has pass-through service to the outside, making indoor-outdoor entertainment seamless.
Sacramento area luxury market
Even century-old olive trees were imported for atmosphere. The estate grows citrus trees, too.
The compound also comes with solar power and garages with enough room for multiple cars, boats and even a golf cart—which might be essential here as the electric back gate opens directly to a path leading to Granite Bay High School and the private golf club.
Luxury market data supports the listing’s boldness. Since 2020, there have been 40 sales in the Sacramento region above $4 million—over one-quarter of them in Granite Bay, which is second only to Loomis.
“The luxury market has still been producing a strong number of sales,” Lundquist said. “In fact, this year we’ve seen more sales above $3 million than any other previous year. There has been more strength in volume at the very highest prices in the region simply because those buyers are often paying cash and not really affected by mortgage rates like so many other price points.”
Lundquist notes that high-end buyers operate differently.
“Only about a quarter of sales at the very highest prices are even using conventional financing, while the bulk of the market is dominated by cash or other types of non-traditional financing,” he said.
Even so, today’s luxury buyers are discerning, and the competition is fierce.
“When looking at closed sales above $4 million since 2024, 73% sold below the original price, and the average price reduction was $650,000,” Lundquist said. “Some of these units are simply priced too high because there are only so many buyers able to compete at this level. The Sacramento region luxury market has exploded in recent years, and we’re still in a market where unicorn properties are being scooped up, but there are also many estates with aspirational pricing.”
