Currently listed at $14.75 million, this elegant 160-acre estate includes two grand Tuscan-style residential villas with a pool and pool house, a tasting room, top-tier vineyards, and full winery facilities. Sprawling lawns with panoramic views create an ideal setting for weddings, events and retreats. Elite Auctions, a leader in luxury real estate auctions, will sell this property without reserve to the highest bidder on Saturday, May 17, 2025.
Located in Paso Robles American Viticultural Area (AVA), also known as 'Tuscany on the Pacific,' Villa San-Juliette offers:
An Established Winery: A 100-acre vineyard producing 12 varietals and a fully operational winery, tasting room, and two large barrel rooms. It also includes 60 acres of tilled arable land (with water rights), a paddock, and gardens.
Luxurious Living: Two 3,700-square-foot Tuscan-style villas featuring upscale accommodations for owners or guests. A two-bedroom winemaker's cottage currently operates as a successful Airbnb.
An Event Ready Venue: Expansive lawns and a natural amphitheater to host weddings, corporate retreats, and concerts for up to 200 guests.
Resort-Style Expansion Potential: The property is suited for luxury lodging, glamping or tiny home developments, making it ideal for a boutique hospitality venture.
Strategic Location: Centrally located between Los Angeles and San Francisco (approximately a three-hour drive), 1.5 miles away from Paso Robles Airport (private jet-friendly), with space for a helipad.
Warwick and Lythgoe, childhood friends and Emmy-winning producers purchased the property in 2005, leveled the existing house, planted 130 acres of grapevines, and created Villa San-Juliette. The property has served as a private escape for 'American Idol' stars, offering a quiet, picturesque getaway from the spotlight.

'This is an opportunity to acquire premium acreage, production facilities, and luxury real estate at exceptional value, with potential for long-term land appreciation.'

Demi Lovato Brought Back These Controversial Pants From the '50s
"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links." Never has Demi Lovato looked better, and never has a dry cleaning run looked this chic. Yesterday, the singer was seen out in New York City's Chelsea neighborhood, picking up a bright fuchsia party dress while in a classic 1950s-style getup that included a skintight crop top and even tighter pants. The top was a cream, long-sleeve piece with an elegant twisted detail at the chest. The slinky piece left Lovato's abs bare, and then, her pants took the spotlight. These were inky, stretchy, vintage-style cigarette pants with belt loops at the top and a silhouette that hugged the pop star's legs. The off-duty look nodded to the cult-classic film Grease, and Lovato looked like the ultimate Pink Lady. She further played into the nostalgia with her accessories: black, pointy leather slingbacks from Saint Laurent, and oversize, black shield-style aviator sunglasses. Her only jewelry was her massive diamond engagement ring from husband Jutes. Lovato's stop in New York City comes as she made millennial hearts skip a beat on Sunday night, when she joined the Jonas Brothers on stage during the opening night of their 20th-anniversary tour, JONAS20. She and ex-boyfriend-turned-friend Joe Jonas even made us heal a little as they performed Camp Rock classics including 'This Is Me' and 'Wouldn't Change a Thing.' Lovato is also back to making music. Earlier this month, she released her latest single 'Fast,' and a new album is expected in 2026.

‘Stranger Things' star Dacre Montgomery shares why he left Hollywood just as his stardom began
Stranger things have happened. Horror hunk Dacre Montgomery has shared why he stepped back from the limelight after finding stardom in Netflix's mega-hit show 'Stranger Things.' 'I think things have changed,' Montgomery said in an interview with The Australian. 'Traditional Hollywood stars existed because there was mystery… Social media has done away with that. That's a large part of why I dropped off the map for the last five years.' 4 Dacre Montgomery stepped back from Hollywood after acting in 'Stranger Things.' Courtesy Netflix The Australian-born actor, who rose to fame playing Billy Hargrove on the 12-time Emmy Award-winning series, wanted to navigate Tinseltown on his terms. 'I'm not trying to compete with anyone else, I'm living my truth — and hopefully being able to pay the rent while I'm doing it,' Montgomery said. Montgomery joined 'Stranger Things' during the show's second season and his character was killed off at the end of the third season, which aired in July 2019. 'I've given a piece of myself to every role I've played and that's largely why I've taken time off,' Dacre added. Montgomery has acted in nearly a dozen projects over the past decade. 4 Montgomery appeared in season 2 and 3 of Netflix's hit horror show. Courtesy Netflix 4 Montgomery attended the 'Went Up the Hill' premiere at the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival. Getty Images His most notable roles include playing Steve Binder in the 2022's 'Elvis' starring Austin Butler and the Red Ranger in the 2017 'Power Rangers' film. 'Lately, there's been a lot of personal reflection about what I want in my career,' Montgomery added to the Australian. 'I'm trying to gain a bit more control over where and what I'm working on.' The 30-year-old is focused on picking projects that could leave a lasting 'impact' with viewers, according to his recent interview with People Magazine. 4 Montgomery is planning to make his directorial debut with the film 'The Engagement Party.' Penske Media via Getty Images He hoped his new indie thriller, 'Went Up the Hill,' might accomplish his vision of creating work with a long-term presence with some audiences. 'The connective tissue between all the films I'm trying to do at the moment is films that have something really important to say, and 'Went Up the Hill' is divisive,' Montgomery told People. 'It's not a movie that everyone will connect to, but the people that do connect to it, I hope, will find catharsis.' Montgomery added, 'And that's why you make these movies, right? Because it only has to impact one person in the right way to work. And that's really what I'm really trying to mine in my career, is being a part of projects like that.'
