At the quiet end of the lane, in the very heart of Sonoma Valley, this single-level Craftsman feels like a secret you get to keep. A year-round creek murmurs along the property's edge, fenced privacy wraps the grounds, and natural open space stretches beyond, so every day here begins and ends in a pocket of calm the rest of the world rarely finds. Sunlight pours through open beam architecture and settles across the living spaces, where a cozy window seat waits for slow mornings and long, golden afternoons. The kitchen invites lingering, dressed in quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances, ready for a bottle of local red and a meal shared with someone you love. Everything unfolds on one gentle level. Step outside and the romance deepens. A sparkling pool and hot tub promise starlit soaks, while multi-level decking drifts down toward the creek, following the sun from first light to last. It is a place made for barefoot evenings and unhurried weekends. Escape here as your own private vacation retreat, or simply pour a glass and staycation at home. Wander to the Glen Ellen Star for wood-fired dinners, sip the night away at Songbird Parlour, soak at nearby Morton's Warm Springs, and lose yourself along the hiking trails and state parks that make this corner of the valley legendary. Currently a successful vacation rental, the property offers vacation rental permit eligibility that new owners may pursue directly through the County of Sonoma, subject to their own application and verification. A rare lifestyle asset for a full-time resident, a Bay Area second-home dreamer, or a 1031 exchange buyer, all in one of Sonoma Valley's most beloved communities.
