11. Guest House Fit For a King
The 1,900-square-foot guest house was the first building on the property to be completed (in 1992). It was built in a “French Provincial” style by architect Peter Bohlin of the organization Bohlin Cywinski Jackson (as was the rest of the house), and was built nearly underground.
The one-bedroom, one-bath house is just as high-tech as the main property, and was originally used to test the technology that would later be used in the rest of the main house. Gates wrote much of his book, The Road Ahead, in this comparatively modest guest home.
