Former Apple manager Dale Fuller's gorgeous mansion, 'the trophy of Menlo Park,' boasts a 1,600-bottle wine cellar and is for sale for $19.8 million — take a look inside
Early Silicon Valley entrepreneur and former Apple manager Dale Fuller has listed his French mansion in Menlo Park, California, which is now for sale for $19.8 million.
Fuller purchased the 8,810-square-foot home at 5 Robert S Drive in the late 1990s and spent four years rebuilding and remodelling it, tacking on his own personal touches like a slated roof and imported French brick floor for the 1,600-bottle wine cellar.
The estate sits on its originally slated 1-acre lot, a characteristic that Billy McNair of Coldwell Banker Residential Brokerage said is a rarity as lots around it have been subdivided over the years.
"It's the trophy of Menlo Park, if you will," McNair told Business Insider.
Take a look inside:
The gigantic estate at 5 Robert S Drive is no stranger to high-profile Silicon Valley figures.
McNair said the chateau was one of a handful built in the 1940s in memorium to the late capitalist Robert Stephen Moore, after whom the cul-de-sac was named.
Moore's wife, Florence, had the home and the cul-de-sac on which it sits developed as a tribute to her husband after he passed away.
It's also one of the only parcels of the original seven that hasn't been divvied up, meaning the large scope of the property is a rare find.
The home will likely find its new owner in a tech tycoon of the 21st century.
The mansion holds six bedrooms, seven full bathrooms, a three-car garage, an expansive pool and outdoor area, and a pool house pavilion that McNair said the Fullers utilized to host large-scale events.
The home also boasts park-like grounds.
