Blackhawk Country Club estate commissioned by Ken Behring is pending sale for $12.096 million at auction in just 49 days in cooperation with Compass California
Concierge Auctions today announced that a visionary mid-century modern home in Danville, California, designed by famed architect Doug Dahlin and situated in the exclusive Eagle Ridge enclave of the luxurious Blackhawk Country Club, is pending sale for $12.096 million at auction after just 49 days, breaking the record for the highest priced residential sale in Danville. Offered in cooperation with Joujou Chawla of Compass California, the auction was held as part of the firm’s ‘Summer Showcase’, a sale series of auctions featuring some of the finest real estate offerings in the world spanning New York, Hong Kong, and Dubai, bidding closed live at the Pendry Manhattan West in New York.
Located at 81 Eagle Ridge Place, the custom-built estate occupies one of the largest and most coveted lots in the area, nestled on a private cul-de-sac with 24/7 guard services ensuring unparalleled privacy and security. Inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright’s ‘Fallingwater’, the home was commissioned for Ken Behring, Blackhawk and real estate developer and former owner of the National Football League’s Seattle Seahawks, and meticulously crafted by Dahlin, with interiors by Steven Chase, lighting by Craig Roberts, and oversight by contractor Michael DeBene. Spanning nearly 27,000 square feet on 4.54 acres, the residence boasts seven bedrooms, eight full bathrooms, six half bathrooms, and two detached one-bedroom apartments.
"The Behring Estate stands as a landmark among residences in Blackhawk and the broader East Bay," said Chawla. "We are happy to have partnered with Concierge Auctions to not only find the next owner of this exceptional property but also to pass on the extraordinary living experience it provides."
“We specialize in presenting properties that epitomize luxury living, with a particular emphasis on those showcasing design sophistication, akin to Frank Lloyd Wright's legacy,” said Chad Roffers, co-founder and CEO of Concierge Auctions. “We’re proud to have worked alongside the talented team at Compass California to identify the next owner.
