The Santa Rosa home of Frank Mauceri — founder of now-defunct Smog Veil Records, a Chicago-based label for influential underground and punk artists like Dead Boys — is currently listed for sale. Built by Jon Reiter, known for accenting his Wine Country builds with unique architectural elements, the home has three bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms and sits on 8.5 acres. The asking price is $5,590,000.
The dwelling has tranquil Mediterranean style with terraces and vines climbing the rosy stucco exteriors. It’s decidedly eclectic via Reiter’s signature use of globally sourced elements: French entry doors, Tuscan pine shuttered windows, rosewood interior doors, a Louis XIII hearth and Moroccan scroll vent covers.
A playful mix of color expands on the 3,700-square-foot home’s eclecticism — there are select periwinkle doorframes and rust, blue and ochre walls. Zellige tiles in blue and green contrast with ochre kitchen walls and the seafoam-colored La Cornue range.
Fifteen-inch plaster Rastra-block walls provide added insulation, fire resistance and seismic durability. Floors are cool concrete equipped with radiant heat.
The property offers several places to dine, relax and play. There’s a covered patio with vineyard and valley views, a saltwater pool and spa, the stone-clad studio gym with a fireplace, and a game room with pinball machines and a bowling machine. The home arcade is chic with velvety seating areas cocooned in a deep gray wall color.
