1-acre Private Backyard with Large Pool

Glen Ellen getaway 1 hour from the Golden Gate Bridge. The indoor/outdoor format allows you to flow back and forth between climate controlled comfort and swimming in the large custom in-ground pool (not heated), lounging on the deck, perusing the flower gardens, picking fresh produce from the garden in the back, lawn games or bocce, al fresco dining and refreshments on the deck, decompressing in the hot tub, or just letting the warm sunshine wash over you in one of the chaise loungers until you enter a Zen-like state. Spacious indoors and out, a dining room and two large common rooms with masonry fireplaces offer gathering places to relax and wind down after a full day with a meal and fire.

We are located in the heart of Sonoma Valley wine country. Several wineries are walkable, and dozens more are within a 10 minute drive. Hiking, biking, and picnicking in Sonoma Valley Regional Park, as well as guided nature walks in Bouverie Wildflower Preserve, are both a mile away. Charming downtown Glen Ellen is 1.5 miles down a country lane. The entrance to Jack London State Park and amazing hiking, picnicking, and historic buildings are two miles away; guided horseback riding is also available. The renowned Sonoma town square is 7.5 miles down Highway 12. Glen Ellen and Sonoma both offer great restaurants, Sonoma a wider selection. Your spirit of adventure will be met in full by the world class recreational activities at your fingertips.

The house itself is remodeled with abundant light from skylights, picture windows, and sliding glass doors. Almost every room has views of the lush, private back yard with extensive lawn, mature trees, and flowers in bloom most of the year. The house has 3 full baths including an en-suite master bath.

House was exactly as described. Kitchen was fully stocked with all types of pot, pans and cooking utensils. Large living room and family room allowed for family to spread out. We didn’t use the pool or hot tub, (too busy exploring Napa) but there were tons of pool towels and pool floats in the garage. Robert was a receptive host, texting me right away after I asked a question. A great house for a family vacation!
