Located within an area that appears to be eligible for vacation rental use per Sonoma County Vacation Rental maps (buyer to independently verify with Sonoma County). This unique property offers exciting possibilities for personal enjoyment, income potential, or multi household living. Tucked along the river with easy access to Sonoma County wine country, the property captures the lifestyle buyers dream about when searching for Russian River real estate. Connected by expansive sun-drenched decking, the two homes create the perfect setup for extended family, guests, creative retreats, or flexible living arrangements. The grounds are exceptionally usable a rare find along the river featuring beautiful gardens, mature fruit trees, open sunny spaces, and private pathways leading directly down to the water's edge. The property even extends out into the river itself, creating an extraordinary connection to the landscape. The living quarters are elevated above the flood for added peace of mind while still offering close proximity to the river experience buyers seek. A garage/workshop space plus extensive storage provide flexibility for hobbies, outdoor gear, tools, and recreational equipment. Whether you envision entertaining friends under the redwoods, gardening in the sunshine, kayaking from your own property, enjoying pets and outdoor living, or simply escaping the city to unwind in nature, this property delivers the quintessential Russian River lifestyle.
