About this property

Private Enclave within Walking Distance of Plaza 5 Bed /5 1/2 Baths Sleeps 10-12

The Setting
Behind tall stone walls and antique wooden gates lies a lush, secluded estate bordered on two sides by Sonoma Open Space. The beautifully landscaped grounds are filled with native rosemary, lavender, flowering vines, and mature olive and oak trees. As you enter, a heated dipping pool welcomes you to relax. Meandering pathways lead through secret garden nooks, seating areas, and a spacious back patio—perfect for grilling, outdoor dining, or sipping coffee while taking in the views of the hills. The home’s expansive sliding doors blur the line between indoor and outdoor living, and a crystal-clear hot tub adds the perfect touch of luxury.

The Main House
The beautifully restored main house preserves its historic roots while offering all the comforts of modern living. Every window opens to a picturesque view, filling the space with natural light and fresh country air.

3 Bedrooms / 3 Bathrooms

Two private downstairs queen suites with en-suite bathrooms

One spacious upstairs king suite with sweeping views of the estate

Large Dining Room that seats 10+ with full place settings and wine glasses

Gourmet Kitchen with high-end appliances, fully stocked for chefs or catered meals

Elegant Living Room with antique furnishings, working fireplace, and flat-screen TV

The Guest Cottages
Just steps from the main house, two private studio cottages offer quiet comfort and their own outdoor seating areas:

Cottage One: King bed, bath/shower combo, kitchenette

Cottage Two: Queen bed, walk in shower, kitchenette

Cottage Three: King bed, walk in shower

Each includes a microwave, fridge, sink, coffee maker, and serene views.

You may rent the main house and add the cottages as needed. The price quoted includes Cottage One and Two.

Live the Sonoma Lifestyle
You're just minutes from all that Sonoma has to offer—historic adobes, tasting rooms, art galleries, boutique shops, and world-class restaurants. Walk to the Plaza for wine tasting, spa days, farmers markets, or a sunset picnic on the town lawn. Hike the nearby scenic trails (one right across the street), then return home for a relaxing soak in the hot tub or dinner under the stars or in the wine cellar.

Whether you’re cooking with local ingredients from the Sonoma Market, hiring a private chef, or walking to dinner in town, your stay will be one to remember.

Wine/Engagement/Military

We were in town to visit wine country, visit my son who is stationed there in the Air Force and my other son’s engagement. The home was perfect! Everyone had a bed and bathroom, large kitchen for cooking, enjoyed dinner one night in the wine cellar and the property was beautiful. We will be back.

Beautiful property for girls trip

Me and a group of 8 girlfriends stayed here for my 30th birthday and the property was SO beautiful in person - the pictures didn't come close to doing it justice! It was spacious, clean, and gorgeous and Sandy was very responsive. We did our private chef dinner on night in the wine cellar which was outstanding. Couldn't recommend this place more!

Fantastic Stay in Sonoma

We just had great stay at this property. Five couples gathering for a birthday celebration. The place is beautiful and beautifully maintained. Each bedroom is fully sufficient for an adult couple, and the kitchen and common areas are amazing. Great catered dinner from recommended chef, Erin. The host, Sandy, was informative and responsive throughout. Highly recommended.

Girls weekend with college roommates

The property was better than the pictures! It was like a private oasis so close to the Sonoma downtown square, but we felt like we were on a nature preserve. We regularly saw deer, hummingbirds and other birds on the property. There were over 6 areas outside that all six of us could gather together. Inside also provided plenty of space. We had a lovely time and enjoyed two cabins close to the house.

Empty Nesters trip

We had a wonderful time! The property was absolutely beautiful and we loved the onsite cottages and wine cave. There were a few minor issues (“pool” was not a pool, hot tub needed some cleaning and there was a bit of a smell in the main house) BUT overall this was a beautiful property and Sandy was wonderful to work with. Solid 4.5 stars and would stay here again!

I believe this stay was one of my favorites ever. Working with Sandy was so pleasant, she was very informative and answered every question I had right away! From the moment you walk through the gate your in awe with this property. The house is beautiful, and had everything you need to stay there.

Stop scrolling because you already found the perfect property. If you read the reviews below, you will consistently see exceptional ratings. They’re all accurate. Our party of 10 recently stayed at the home in celebration of my wife’s 40th birthday. The property host, Sandy, helped coordinate a catered dinner (from the girl and the fig), specially designed cake, and extra decorations prior to our arrival. The home and surrounding grounds served as the perfect backdrop for an unforgettable experience. We enjoyed appetizers in the garden by the fountain, dinner in the wine cellar, and dessert near the fire pit. Seriously, it’s like we hosted a progressive dinner in the same location.We could not be more pleased. Highly recommend!
