Interior Details
The main house is approximately 3,000 square feet and has 3 bedrooms (all upstairs), all with ensuite bathrooms. Downstairs is an office and a well-designed kitchen with all the amenities for enthusiastic cooks--the kitchen and dining area has recently been expanded and remodeled completely, the kitchen with all-new sub-zero appliances. The spacious, contemporary and stylish dining room seats 10 for dinner and is an inviting room to host beautiful wine country meals.
A large living room with wrap-around decks takes full advantage of the property's hillside location. From the living area guests can enjoy mountain, vineyard and pool views. If you can be tempted away from the natural beauty just beyond your windows, there is a large flat-screen TV for your enjoyment.
Upstairs the generous primary suite has a king bed and a flat screen TV. A spacious private terrace offers the perfect seating area to enjoy the magical vista surrounding you. The primary bath has abundant natural light and has been remodeled with a freestanding tub and separate shower and toilet.
The 2nd and 3rd cheery bedrooms have queen beds and each has their own newly remodeled ensuite bathroom (with shower). A lovely large terrace off one of the guest rooms offers a relaxing sunset view of the mountain and vineyards.
There is a large office and separate TV room downstairs for a private workspace or for quiet television viewing.
This home has an incredibly inviting, comfortable layout that takes full advantage of the flow between the indoor and outdoor spaces – in large part thanks to the well-placed private terraces, wrap around decks and many windows throughout.
Additionally there is a large charming and contemporary pool house with a full bathroom, flat screen TV and fitness area with free weights and a Peloton bike on the first floor and a large open room on the second floor with a king bed, sofa, a large flatscreen TV, and french doors that lead to a balcony with expansive views of the vineyard and pool area.
Exterior Details
An outdoor patio with a dining table for 8 plus multiple lounge chairs and a large fire-pit is the perfect place to enjoy summer evenings alfresco, under the olive trees and by the vines. The lovely pool and beautifully landscaped yard are screened with oaks, olive and lemon trees, birds of paradise and a private Zinfandel vineyard for your own little taste of wine country.
This stunning private 1.7 acre estate is a rare gem. It is ideally located in the heart of Sonoma's wine country halfway between Kenwood/Glen Ellen and the historic square in downtown Sonoma close to vineyards, wineries, tasting rooms and restaurants.
