Description

Tucked beneath the trees on a sprawling lot, this fairytale cottage offers a rare sense of privacy in a forested valley in eastern Sonoma County. It feels wonderfully removed from the pace of everyday life, yet Santa Rosa, Calistoga, and Highway 101 are all just 15 minutes away. A true country property, but with the convenience of town nearby. The inviting two-bedroom, one-bath cottage is warm, comfortable, and surrounded by nature. Multiple decks and outdoor spaces create plenty of opportunities...Tucked beneath the trees on a sprawling lot, this fairytale cottage offers a rare sense of privacy in a forested valley in eastern Sonoma County. It feels wonderfully removed from the pace of everyday life, yet Santa Rosa, Calistoga, and Highway 101 are all just 15 minutes away. A true country property, but with the convenience of town nearby. The inviting two-bedroom, one-bath cottage is warm, comfortable, and surrounded by nature. Multiple decks and outdoor spaces create plenty of opportunities to relax, dine, entertain, or simply take in the peaceful wooded setting. A newer water heater and water treatment system add everyday comfort and convenience. Two additional structures open up a range of possibilities. Create a home office, art studio, private gym, or quiet retreat in one, while using the other for storage, a workshop, or whatever your next project calls for. With parking for four or more cars, there is plenty of room for guests. Owned solar panels with a bidirectional PG&E meter provide credits for surplus energy returned to the grid, helping reduce electricity costs. More than anything, this is a place to slow down. A magical private retreat beneath the trees, surrounded by nature, where the pace feels easier and the outside world seems far away. Welcome home.
